HD Radio is a new technology that enables AM and FM radio stations to broadcast their programs digitally, a tremendous technological leap from today's familiar analog broadcasts. These digital broadcasts provide listeners with radically improved audio quality and reception and new data services. Signal fading, static, hisses and pops are a thing of the past. Data services, weather and traffic alerts and much more will revolutionize the way you experience AM and FM radio. And it's all FREE for consumers, just like today's analog AM and FM radio.

KNX 1070 NEWSRADIO's 50,000 watt HD Radio signal provides FM-quality stereo sound to HD Radio receivers all over Southern California. These receivers are just coming to retailers. Look for the "HD Radio" logo on the radio (shown above). Boston Acoustics has just released a tabletop HD Radio called the "Recepter Radio HD".

Aftermarket autosound HD Radios are available from Kenwood, Panasonic, Alpine, Fujitsu, JVC and Sanyo. High-end systems with HD Radio reception include those from Yamaha, Rotel and Day-Sequerra. More new receivers are expected on the market by March 2006. Rebates are available with many of these HD Radios.

The improvement in AM sound quality is breathtaking. Current analog AM radios filter out much of the brightness to reduce the effects of analog interference. With digital HD Radio, the sound is full and clear. On scene reports sound like you are there with the reporters. And there is no interference.
