Hi,
You can get more info on HD-radio at
www.hd-radio.com/index.php
HD-radio is actually digital AM and FM broadcasting. In the US system, the
digital signal is sent along with the conventional AM/FM signal, but the
digital signal is really excellent audio. AM digital sounds like present
day FM stereo and digital FM sounds like your listening to a cd. I have the
Boston Acoustics Receptor radio and I would not recommend it because
everything is a scrolling menu with no zero beep but at the time I bought
it, it was the only HD-radio for the home around at a reasonable price. It
has way too much base even with the base turned down as much as possible.

Could someone tell me what is an hd radio? Is this a new type of satelite
receiver? Thanks.
