Sub-channels Example of an HD Radio station with sub-channels
In many cases, a main HD Radio station (FM
wavebands only) will also have sub-channels
offering additional types of programming or
music.
In such cases, the “>” symbol will be displayed
to the left of the frequency number and a num-
ber will be displayed to the right of the fre-
quency number indicating that the currently
tuned frequency has at least one sub-channel.
The "2" in the illustration indicates that you are
currently listening to the first sub-channel on
frequency 93.9.
Selecting sub-channelsTo listen to a frequency\fs sub-channel(s), press
the left or right arrow keys (see the illustration
on page 138). If you are currently tuned to a frequency\fs main channel, pressing the left
arrow key will tune to the next lower radio fre-
quency.
NOTE
\b
When the radio has gone into HD mode,
it may take several seconds before a
number (if the current frequency has
any sub-channels) is displayed to the
right of the frequency. Pressing the
arrow keys before the number is dis-
played will cause the radio to tune to the
next available radio station, not to the
current station\fs sub-channels.
\b When you are no longer in broadcasting
range of the current
sub-channel, No
HD reception will be displayed. It will
then be necessary to tune to or search
for a new radio station. Sub-channels can also be stored as pre-
sets,See page 138 for information on storing
stations.
Once a sub-channel has been stored on a pre-
set button, if you press this button while you
are out of digital range of the transmitter,
No
HD reception will be displayed. Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB) -
