RDS can be a pain in the a$$ though.
i know, when i have it one, it can take
up to 8 seconds after switching to a
station b4 the music starts.
if you set your pre-sets out of the RDS signal range you won't get the delay.
for example, i set my presets for CT stations while I was in Boston, and set my Boston presets in CT. I get the delay on one station now, 93.7, because the frequency exists in both markets as different stations. does that make sense?

my X5 with nav has RDS, and I had an old kenwood (2000) in my cherokee that had it as well.
i am going to be purchasing an HD radio soon from Boston Acoustics as we have a bunch of side channels that are on in hartford, boston and ny.
