WPAP and WFSY now have title and artist info on the RDS. Will follow soon on WEBZ and WPBH as soon as I can get and IP connection to those transmitter sites...

Impressive you are so progressive --- and Double 00 still has to use car batteries since they can't pay the electricity bill.

for a while, B95.1 had the technology.

Yup, I've logged 98.5 with RDS (don't know call)
It was airing deliaha (delayed from the two other copies of deliaha I get from mobile/pensacola)

Title and artist, good. I really like the ones that I see when traveling that try to cram so much stuff into the message that words/call letters/frequency are broken up, can be quite humorous. "You are listening to Ma" next line "jic Broadcasting's news" next line "station featuring weat" next line "her 24 hrs a day...". No, that was just an example, not an actual observation. Do something funny cceng.

there are settings in most RDS encoders to minimize the trunkating (not sure of the spelling of that $10 word) of long words, but it is almost impossible to make RDS perfect when you only have 7 or 8 characters to work with.

Rob ... don't listen to Sunny 98.5 ... it's bad karma
