Abstract (en)

[origin: WO02088849A1] The invention concerns a timekeeper equipped with a radio reception device capable of decoding a Radio Data System (RDS) information (7) and comprising a time base (1), means (5) for displaying time data supplied by said time base, and means (2) for correcting said time data. The radio reception device (7) comprises means (10) for delivering RDS type data derived from a RDS spectrum received on a high-frequency carrier; and control means (4, 6, 19) which, on the basis of the delivered RDS type data control the correcting means (2) to ensure time setting of the timekeeper. The invention is characterised in that the timekeeper is designed to be portable and the radio reception device (7) further includes means (10) for rejecting the spectrum received from a frequency modulated transmitter supplying RDS data, except for the frequency band in which are contained RDS type data.
