What is HD Radio
This unit is equipped with an HD Radio receiver.
HD Radio can deliver high-quality digital
sound—AM digital will have FM-like sound
quality (in stereo) and FM digital will have CD-
like sound quality—with static-free and clear
reception. Furthermore, stations can offer text
and data, such as artist names and song titles.
• HD Radio receivers 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,
please visit www.hdradio.com <http://www.
