HD Radio Reception and Station Troubleshooting
Potential reception issues
If you are listening to a multicast station and you are on the fringe ofthe reception area, the station may mute due to weak signal strength.Reception area
If you are listening to HD1, the system switches back to the analogbroadcast until the digital broadcast is available again. However, if youare listening to any of the possible HD2-HD7 multicast channels, thestation mutes and stays muted unless it is able to connect to the digitalsignal again.
When the system first receives a station (aside from HD2-HD7 multicaststations), it first plays the station in the analog version. Once the receiververifies the station is an HD Radio station, it shifts to the digital version.Depending on the station quality, you may hear a slight sound changewhen the station changes from analog to digital. Blending is the shiftfrom analog to digital sound or digital back to analog sound.
Stationblending
In order to provide the best possibleexperience, use the contact form to reportany station issues found while listening toa station broadcasting with HD Radiotechnology.
