Type of program (PTY)

You can receive even more information
by using RDS. Certain stations broad-
cast the station's particular type of
program (PTY), e. g. NEWS, SPORTS,
POP MUSIC, CULTURE etc.
If there is weak or interrupted recep-
tion, it can take quite a while before
PTY is available.
PTY can also be used for catas-
trophe warnings. If the station is
broadcasting this type of program, then
"ALERT" will appear in the display.
