Does anyone have an up to date list of the FM Stations broadcasting an RDS (Radio Data System) signal ?? It would be nice to compare use of RDS to the poor showing of HD signals in the Valley. Thanks.

Thanks for thr reply. Looks like RDS useage is as low as HD channels. What a shame.
Not a shame about HD. HD is an interference producer which should have never been approved.
Almost a decade since its adoption, and hardly anyone is listening.
Here in Seattle, the 21 HD stations take up something like 65 frequencies, in some cases obliterating stations that can easily be heard. (There are two instances where more than the expected two adjacent channels are wiped out.)
Almost all HD formats can be heard in higher quality on the Internet and smart phones. No localism in most cases, so hardly ever anything unique.
One radio hobbyist put it succinctly: in Russia they call it jamming. In the U.S., it's HD.

HD is a Dxer's nightmare.
All good comments about HD radio -- but why such a low usage of RDS ?? SCA signals have been around almost from the very beginning of FM broadcasting. RDS is NOT HD.
