What is HD Radio™ Technology and
how does it work?
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 broadcasts
(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. For more
information, and a gui
de to available radio
stations and programming, please visit
www.hdradio.com.
Benefits of HD Radio™ Technology

The song title, artist name, album name
and genre will appear on the screen when
available by the radio station.
(Multicast)

station which is an

an

a few seconds and then received.
