HD Radio Reception and Station Troubleshooting
Potential reception issues
If you are listening to a multicast station and you
are on the fringe of the reception area, the station
may mute due to weak signal strength. Reception area
If you are listening to HD1, the system switches back
to the analog broadcast until the digital broadcast
is available again. However, if you are listening to
any of the possible HD2-HD7 multicast channels,
the station mutes and stays muted unless it is able
to connect to the digital signal again.
When the system first receives a station (aside from
HD2-HD7 multicast stations), it first plays the
station in the analog version. Once the receiver
verifies the station is an HD Radio station, it shifts
to the digital version. Depending on the station
quality, you may hear a slight sound change when
the station changes from analog to digital. Blending
is the shift from analog to digital sound or digital
back to analog sound. Station blending
In order to provide the best possible
experience, use the contact form to
report any station issues found while
listening to a station broadcasting
with HD Radio technology.
Independent entities own and operate
each station. These stations are
responsible for ensuring all audio
streams and data fields are accurate.
