A question, though... when I select Info, I get 2 options - TP (What is this?!) and RTS (doesn't seem to give any other menu for selection as stated in the manual). When I select either one of them, the radio toggles to the Weather Band and back to the radio - that's it! Is this the normal operation for this? (I somehow doubt it!) How is this supposed to function?
Good for you! My understanding of RTS is, it will show Artist & song on some FM stations (the ones that transmit the info - not all or even most do, though). A couple of the ones I listen in my area do.

Smile tp and rds

The tp (traffic program) system in England switches the radio to any local station giving traffic reports whatever you are listening to cd, tape or another radio channel then it reverts back afterwards, the rds system (radio data system) posts in the display the radio stations identity and other info, it is also able to switch the radio to the strongest fm signal of a given station automatically. But you all know this anyway sorry to be a bore!

You don't have to use purely version 20, just a lower version should do the trick...

I did lower the software ones to v25 because i had already installed V26 but wanted the other one with the different start-logo.

This did'nt help

I think you at least need to go down to V22. I've read going back to V23 doesn't give your back your INFO & SELECT buttons.

can anyone help me..
i have a 98 540

i upgraded my screen, nav and tv tuner to a 16:9, MK iv and a
dual output 16:9/4:3 tuner..

i had a prob with the select/info button so had to take it to a dealer to code..

after that i upgraded my dsp amp and also my radio to a bm54 ( the one i took out was a bm54 but with round pins)

anyway i had an option called nav-min which i love... but i think since playing around with navcoder i have now lost that option and for the life of me cant get it back.. tried navcoder and also taking it to a dealer.
i beleve the nav-min was a feature of the bm54 aswell as the aux input, additoons radio bands, true split screen etc. (which i do have all of these.. its jsut the nav-min option i cant get back)

then i press info i get the following (from memory) TP, TP-min, RDS, audiotext ( as i upgraded cd changer to a newer mp3 one)
anyone got ne ideas?
