What is HD Radio™ broadcasting?
HD Radio stations can deliver high-quality digital sound—AM digital will have FM-like sound quality (in stereo)
and FM digital will have CD-like sound quality—with static-free and clear reception. Furthermore, stations can
offer text and data, such as artist names and song titles.
• HD Radio tuners can also tune in to conventional analog broadcasts.
• Many HD Radio stations offer more than one channel of programming. This service is called multicasting.
