Strange radio station ID's

This situation applies to the latest generation iDrive:

When I view the list of FM radio stations, they mostly have very strange names such as "Madonna", "DOT ORG", "omething", and other nonsense. I have HD and RDS enabled. When I disable RDS, the list is just the FM frequencies.

Have other people observed this? Why does it do this?

As soon as you select a station it changes to the recognizable call letters, for example WRDU-HD. The saved Preset stations also retain the wacky identifiers.

The station names do not change from day to day. For example, the one that says "Madonna" never changes.
