HD Radio™ Technology is the digital evolution of analog AM/FM radio.
Your radio product has a special receiver which allows it to receive digital
broadcasts (where available) in addition to the analog broadcasts it
already receives.
Digital broadcasts have better sound quality than analog broadcasts as
digital broadcasts provide free, crystal clear audio with no static or distor-
tion. For more information, and a guide to available radio stations and pro-
gramming, refer to www.hdradio.com
