Today's AM and FM radio is broadcast in analog, which has lower audio quality and is filled with static, hiss, pops and fades. Radio stations have begun a transformation to the world of digital using a new technology called HD RadioTM. Today's analog signals and new HD RadioTM digital signals will be transmitted at the same time from AM and FM stations. The radios you use today will continue to function for years, however, new receivers are needed to hear the HD Radio digital signals broadcast from the stations. Using these new receivers, you can pick up the new HD RadioTM digital signals at the same place on the dial (106.7 KROQ will be digital 106.7 KROQ broadcasting in HD RadioTM, 710 WOR will be digital 710 WOR broadcasting in HD RadioTM). Your favorite HD RadioTM digital station will be right where you left it. Additionally, new HD RadioTM receivers will still pick up stations broadcasting in analog, so you don't need two radios. The benefits of digital far outweigh old analog technology. HD RadioTM makes radio "fun" again. FM digital will sound like a CD throughout the coverage area, and AM digital will sound like today's FM throughout the coverage area, both without the static, hiss pops or fades that you've had to put up with for almost a century. While HD RadioTM will bring you pristine audio quality, it will also provide data services*. Both AM and FM HD RadioTM stations will transmit song and artist title, traffic updates, weather alerts, news reports and much more. For more information, visit www.hd-radio.com. Stay tuned! *This unit supports text displays for the following items; station name, call sign, artist, song title.
