audio is played as the system must once again acquire the digital
signal. If you have turned this feature off, this will automatically turn
on HD Radio broadcasts and will tune to the selected frequency.
Note:As with any saved radio station, you will not be able to access
the saved station if your vehicle is outside the station’s reception area.
LIVE broadcasts:If a station has a
live broadcast (such as a baseball
game), LIVE will appear embedded
in the antenna on screen. These are
analog broadcasts with digital
components (i.e. artist, title).
Note:If HD1 is a live broadcast, the
HD Radio broadcast logo will not
appear. If HD2–HD8 is a live
broadcast, the multicast button may
be displayed, but not the HD Radio
broadcast logo.
HD Radio reception factors
Reception area:If you are listening to a multicast station and you are
on the fringe of the reception area, the station may mute due to weak
signal strength. If you are listening to HD1, the system will simply switch
to the analog broadcast until the digital broadcast is available again.
However, if you are listening to any of the possible HD2–HD8 multicast
channels, the station will mute and stay muted unless it is able to
connect to the digital signal again. If it is not able to reconnect, ‘HD
Unavailable’ will appear in the lower status bar.
Station blending:When a station is received, the system will play the
station in the analog version and then, if the receiver verifies the station
is an HD Radio station, it will shift into the digital version. Depending on
the station quality, you may hear a slight sound change when the station
segues from analog to the digital version. The shift from analog to digital
or digital back to analog sound is known as ’blending’.
Station issues
In order to provide the best possible experience, a contact form has been
developed to report any station issues found while listening to a station
broadcasting with HD Radio technology. Every station is independently
owned and operated. These stations are responsible for ensuring all
audio streams and data fields are accurate. This form can be found at:
