[Sansa Clip Zip] RDS Problem

    Ordered the SanDisk Clip zip and got it delivered to England and collected it

    Updated manually to the latest software but the Radio Stations are not showing their RDS names just random letters ?

    Had a look over at the Sandisk forum and seems to be an issue

    Stations tune in ok but no names attached to them

    Anyone have this problem and have they fixed it if so how?

    Cheers

    Did you get this sorted? Is the FM reception on the Zip better than the Clip+ My Clip+ FM reception is brutal.

    As far as I know they use the same tuner chip.
    Actually just looked it up the Clip+ has the older SiLabs Si4702
    While the CLip Zip has the updated SiLabs Si4703. Which is RDS compliant.

    I heard some mention of it being shielded better thus less interference, but like you I assume its more or less the same.
