RDS, if displayed, enables you to continue listening to the samestation by automatic retuning to alternative frequencies. However,
in certain conditions, coverage of an RDS station may not be
assured throughout the country as radio stations do not cover
100 % of the territory. This explains the loss of reception of the station during a journey.
