HD Radio Operations

About HD Radio™ Technology

HD Radio Technology allows CD-quality

digital broadcasting of your local AM and

FM radio stations. HD Radio broadcasts

can include multiple channels on the same

frequency, which is called multicasting. With

multicasting, you can receive up to eight

additional multicast channels: HD1~HD8.

With an HD Radio tuner connected, you

will receive HD Radio digital broadcasts

automatically when tuned to a station that

offers HD Radio Technology.

NOTE: Not all FM or AM stations offer
HD Radio (digital) broadcasting. You can
receive both analog and digital stations
with the unit.
