Heads up display radio stations

It's a bunch of station names (wfan) and once in a while you see a 99.1 etc

Is it possible to get all station numbers (99.1) instead of station names I don't recognize?

Are you saying you saved all your favorite stations to your preset list but don't like that they have the call letters instead of the numerical numbers on your scroll list? I like that you can mix AM/FM and satellite stations on your presets and just scroll through all of them while in M-HUD. Perfect for me!

On the heads up display, not m hud mode. When I use the steering wheel scroll button to go through stations. All I see is the following:

Wplx
Wplx hd1
Wplx hd2
Wplx hd3
Wzfw
Wzfw hd1
99.1
Wfzz
Wfzz hd1

I can kinda figure out what stations they are by adding up or down the station numbers i do see but that isn't always accurate and it's pretty annoying.

I'd like to see it like the following:

100.3
100.3 hd1
100.3 hd2
100.7
101.1
101.1 hd1

I hope this explains my query a little better, thanks

RDS off worked for me. It now displays radio station numbers only. Much better for the HUD.

Ok I figured it out...

When hd radio reception is checked you get the radio station names. I guess it's to differentiate between reg and hd stations.
