●What is HD Radio™ Technology and how does it work?
HD Radio™ Technology is the digital evolution of analog AM/FM
radio. Your radio produc t has a special receiver which allows it to
receive  digital  broadcasts  (where  available)  in  addition  to  the
analog  broadcasts  it  already  rec eives.  Digital  broadcasts  have
better sound quality than analog broadcasts as digital broadcas ts
provide  free,  crystal  clear  audio.  For  more  information,  and  a
guide  to  available  radio  stations   and  programming,  please  visit
