Radio Data System (RDS)

I cannot decode RDS on the work truck radio at the present time for Triple J Sydney, it is normally not a problem.

Will try the stereo with the dx setup.

I’m not surprised with the low RDS injection level, which continues.

I note this morning that their RDS RT (Radio Text with song info etc) has been restored. :slight_smile:

Just tried Triple J on the hifi with the dx setup.
Full RDS decode with scrolling text, but I receive the Sydney fm’s at massive signal levels.

No!

It was ironic, I know you mentioned that they should fix it only a couple of days ago in this post here…

Yes that’s correct.
Highly likely someone reading our posts in this forum sparked some activity with the station. Thank you to that person. :clap: :innocent:

Issue has been fixed for awhile, I fixed the issue months ago
Unless someone screwed around broke it and has since fixed it again it should has been fixed the whole time

It’s the first time I’ve seen it on my car radio.

I don’t understand why someone would have gone and changed it back after you fixed it, or whatever. Weird.

Possibly had something to do with the transmitter crapping itself a couple of months ago, or has it been an issue longer than that?

I haven’t been able to decode any RDS since Tuesday on 97.3 in Brisbane.

They had a massive outage at around 10.13, dead air for 4 minutes… then the crash carts, before 5 seconds of the newsreader and then back onto the playlist.

This is what it looks like to me

Hey @TV.Cynic while you’re there can you post the abomination that is what 98.9 have done with their RDS in the last couple of weeks? Song titles/artists as alternating words in the PS
