Default Shaker 1000

I have seen in serveral Stangs the stereo show the name of the station you are listening to. Also shows the name of the CD when inserted. Am I just missing how to set mine up to do this?
Anybody have any info?

I have the Shaker 500, but the method to do this should be the same for the Shaker 1000. With the radio on, hold the menu button down for about 5 seconds. This should take you into the menu settings and display an option called "RDS". Turn this option on, and you'll have what you're after.

All the stations I listen to use the feature and it is nice to have. I also really like the search feature (clicking Menu after turning RDS on/off), I used it to find what is now one of my favorite stations.
