FAQ
Why does my audio quality change after a few seconds on some HD Radio
stations and on some other stations skip when I fi rst tune in?
HD Radio stations blend analog signals to digital HD Radio. The blend is typically
smooth, but in some cases, the audio quality can take a few seconds to reach
enhanced digital levels. This is not an issue with your HD Radio. This is an HD
Radio broadcaster’s implementation issue, which the station should correct over
time.
What can I do if I my audio is unclear or I don’t hear any audio?
If your radio audio is unclear or you don’t hear any audio, you may be
experiencing one of the following conditions:
•
Is the radio muted? If so, unmute the radio or turn up the volume.
•
Is the radio in AUX mode? If so, your auxiliary device may not be sending
audio signals or may not be correctly connected.
•
Is anything plugged into the headphone jack? If so, unplug it.
•
Check all connections, including power and antenna.
•
Is the signal too weak? If so, tune to a stronger station or reposition your
radio and/or antenna.
•
If you are using an antenna other than the one supplied, make sure the
antenna supports FM reception. If the antenna uses an FM trap, make
sure the FM trap is off.
Note: If you are using an amplifi ed antenna with adjustable gain, turn down
the gain all the way and adjust slowly upward.
