Has anyone in Holland heard RDS TA and/or AF working on Dutch radio?

In another post, someone from Denmark reported AF supposedly does not work in Denmark; I did not travel far enough listening to the readio yet to test AF, but I have never heard TA working. And yes, I do have this feature turned on, tuned into Radio 3.

Dutch radio must use some peculiar RDS feature. This is proven by the fact that Dutch radio 1's RDS signals crash the version 1.03 player.

I tested it once, it does work well. The RDS signal however should be quite strong in order to function correctly. Since my unit is not yet installed in my car, I can't say anything about the Dutch situation while on the road. Will be continued within a few weeks...

Your comment regarding switching to the strongest signal is a known problem (I've no link to the Problem-forum). It's switching if the current signal is very weak, while it should do it earlier. Íf I'm true it's a registered PR and will be picked up by the empeg-team.
So... watch the next beta's!

Neither I've build in my toy yet... first I want to buy my new car, then I'm rebuilding it :-) .
