USING HD Radio ™

TECHNOLOGY
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 broad-
casts (where available) in addition to
the analog broadcasts it already re-
ceives. Digital broadcasts have better
sound quality than analog broadcasts
as digital broadcasts provide free,
crystal clear audio with no static or dis-
tortion. For more information, and a
guide to available radio stations and
programming, refer to
www.hdradio.com
