USING HD Radio ™

TECHNOLOGY
HD Radio ™
Technology is the digital
evolution of analog AM/FM radio. Your
radio product has a special receiver
which allows it to receive digital broad-
casts (where available) in addition to the
analog broadcasts it already receives.
Digital broadcasts have better sound
quality than analog broadcasts as digital
broadcasts provide free, crystal clear
audio with no static or distortion. For
more information, an d a guide to avail-
able radio stations and programming,
