HD Radio technology is the digital
evolution of analog AM/FM radio. Your

it to receive digital broadcasts (where
available) in addition to the analog
broadcasts, it already receives. Digital broadcasts provide a better sound quality
than analog broadcasts with free,
crystal-clear audio and no static or
distortion. For more information, and a
guide to available stations and
