Uh, where's the radio controller in a Golf 7 (AU/5G)?

Hi All:

An autoscan of my 2015 Golf, created by having VCDS automatically poll the car for controllers, does not show anything that looks like a radio controller.

This car has an amazingly complex radio - heck, it is more complex than the Big Blue computer that played chess 20 years ago - but there is no evidence of it on the auto-scan. Am I doing something wrong, or is this radio such super-secret technology that VW won't let anyone look at it? The controller list from my car is below.

Ah, OK, thanks.

I guess with the radio being as complex as it is, it just wouldn't do to call it a 'radio'. :)
