Default Radio display " NO PTV"
When car turned on , radio display "Bose" and then "NO PTV" and then goes to selected radio station. What does it meant? Didn't noticed any radio malfunction. Any input is welcomed!

Default Re: Radio display " NO PTV"
its normal, means that it has not picked up a signal from the satellite that tells the song title, artist and name of the station that scrolls across the radio display...i think

Default yup..it means no program type or something like that.. basically
the radio station that you are listening to is not broadcasting RDBS and your RDBS is selected on your radio.

Default You have RBDS turned on, but the selected station doesn't broadcast.
Try some other stations -- if one of them sends the RBDS signal, you won't get the message.

I'll never understand why people waste their time responding this way. Just let it go.

Default Some people may not live on this list like others or may not be familiar with usergroup features.
Tolerance grasshopper. I'm sure there are plenty of other places your attempts at sardonic humor may be appreciated.
