Thanks for the information Peter. Here in Tasmania it seems to be a mixed bunch, I was hoping to use it to help ID some stations I can hear.

Outside the USA, dunno.  Inside the USA ... mostly.  Is it configured
correctly?  Not so much in the market I'm in.  PTY is often wrong.
Clock time is often wrong or missing.  Station automation software may
or may not be sending the correct data to the encoder.  It's sad,
really.
