I live in the US and have found the RDS to be totally crap on v2.0 final, it tends to switch my Public Radio to an unrelated oldies station repeatedly in a 2 mile section of my commute. Setting the RDS on or off via the interface has absolutely zero effect on the auto switching (it just removes the text display from the screen). I've never known if this is the fault of the RDS the stations put out or just an empeg quirk. When I have RDS set on I also very often get garbled text output. Sorry I don't have better news. Perhaps someone else can comment and point up what I'm missing?
