AM/FM and HD radio
HD radio
HD radio can provide much improved audio quality
when compared to normal AM/FM reception. It can
also provide additional information about available
channel services.
HD radio broadcasts are synchronized with AM/FM
broadcasts. The great advantage here is that when
HD radio is activated and standard AM/FM is in use,
if an HD signal is detected the radio will gradually
transfer to the digital broadcast. No action is required
although a difference in volume may be noticed.
When an HD radio channel is being received, the
station name is prefixed with HD.
If the prefix is HD1, further sub channels are available
from that channel broadcaster.
To enable HD radio:
1\b Select the Settingssoftkey on the Audiomenu
screen.
\f\b Select HD On to activate.
In areas of poor reception, automatic switching
between HD and AM/FM will be more frequent. If this
becomes unacceptable, either tune to an alternative
channel or switch HD radio off via the Settings
softkey.
