Radio Data System (RDS)

Interesting developments with 6iX’s 105.7FM translators in the outer northern & southern suburbs of Perth:

It’s incredible to see a commercial AM station, especially a metro one, use RDS on their lower-powered FM translators.

The only other example I can think of is 2ST down on the South Coast of NSW, in which its 91.7 & 106.7 translators use RDS, including the ‘Now Playing’ song info. Interestingly, their 102.9 Southern Highlands translator doesn’t use RDS.
