ur1wuss Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 Does anyone know if you can enable RDS on the D3? If so how? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guz Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 I am sorry but what is RDS? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HiFiSi Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 The D3 doesn't have RDS. If you do a search for RDS on the D series boards you'd see like 10 or 12 topics that would tell you that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest astrobill Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 LOL If you want RDS to show you song titles and radio ID's, you'll have to settle for a cheap factory-basic-FM radio on any new car (they all come with it now). Why would you expect a $1000 Pioneer unit to actually have something that's free on any cheap radio you buy these days? LOL! Thanks for the incompetence, Pioneer!

HiFiSi Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 Dude... why do you even come here any more? All you do is bitch and complain about how Pioneer and their products are crap. None of your complaining is helping anyone. And it's starting to get old. Do you even own any Pioneer products any more? Or do you just come here to whine for no apparent reason?

superjet Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 Someone needs to set up a new forum, www.ihatemyavic.com. Then there would be a place for the trolls to go. That way this site could go back to the way it used to be, an information resouce, not a place for people to vent their shattered high hopes and expectations. I keep seeing people post about how expensive "$1000" head unit is. Thats hardly expensive compared to all other major brands and the features you get. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry, I was just frustrated with guys like this around here. No doubt the new F series rocks, especially for the money. Pioneer will work out the few "minor" bugs, and they are going to sell a ton of them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Munkey Posted June 25, 2008 Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 Who listens to FM radio on their Avic anyway? With all the other options for music available on it, I hate having to listen to all the damn commercials. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
