HD Radio broadcasting signals are broadcast in the service areas of the current AM/ FM broadcasters where they provide digital audio distribution and data services. This unit receives the above digital broadcasts for your high-quality sound enjoyment. Depending on the signal strength in TUNER mode, the unit will automatically switch between digital signals if they can be received, and analog radio using RBDS if digital signals cannot be received.
