"Traffic Information Memo"

- implemented by Blaupunkt in 1993, worth writing up about.

When the car radio is off - ignition standby or turned off using "on-off" button, it can capture traffic announcements to flash memory. This happens for 6 hours and the logic captures the latest 4 announcements. It can be set to start capturing after a user-set number of hours so the user can capture announcements that occur in the morning peak.

Earliest form of flash-memory audio recording.

[edit] RT and PS

In my place (Lithuania) all stations use PS for displaying data such as clock or "Now Playing" text.
