(54)	System for transmission and reception of radio programmes carrying a prefixed code, allowing the automatic search of these programmes, irrespective of the transmitter which broadcasts these programmes: programme link system

(57) This is a system for transmitting, receiving and listening to a program/piece prefixed and identified by a code, whatever the station which transmits that program/piece may be, provided that it has to be preceded by the broadcast of the identification code of the program itself. As this code can be transmitted together with the actual RDS/PAD signal by adding only some bit in the end, the following description is, in short, based on the variations of the project, which the radio-receivers need to make use of this additional code for the automatic search of the program/piece.
