[. . . ] More and more radio stations have begun to broadcast RDS information alongside their programmes. As soon as programmes have been identified, the station name including a regional identifier, if applicable, will appear in the display, for example, NDR1 NDS (regional programme in Lower Saxony, Germany). You now know exactly which programme you have tuned into, making it easy to find the desired station quickly. But RDS offers you further advantages: If "SEARCH" appears in the display when switching on the radio or recalling one of the stored frequencies, the unit is automatically searching for an alternative frequency. "SEARCH" will disappear from the display when the alternative frequency has been found or after the frequency band has been run through completely. If the reception quality of the selected programme becomes too bad: · Tune into another station.

REG - regional programme Certain radio programmes are split up at times into regional programmes offering local information. The 1st programme broadcast by NDR, for example, offers programmes with different contents in the northern states of Germany Schleswig-Holstein, Hamburg and Lower Saxony at certain times of the day. If you have tuned to a regional programme, you can select between REG ON and REG OFF: REG ON ­ the radio keeps tuned to the current regional programme, even if the reception quality is getting poorer. REG OFF ­ the radio automatically tunes to the regional programme offering the best reception quality (but maybe with local information for another service area).
