Listening to the HD Radio ™ Broadcast

What is HD Radio Technology?
HD Radio Technology can deliver high-quality
digital sound—AM digital will have FM-like
quality (in stereo) and FM digital will have
CD-like quality—with static-free and clear
reception. Furthermore, stations can offer text
and data, such as artist names and song titles.
• When the HD Radio tuner box is connected,
it can also receive conventional analog
broadcasts.
• Many HD Radio stations also offer more than
one channel of programming. This service is
called multicasting.
• To find HD Radio stations in your area, visit
