Listening to the HD Radio ™ Broadcast
Before operating, connect HD Radio tuner box,
KT-HD300 (not supplied) to the CD changer jack on the
rear of the unit.
What is HD Radio Technology?
HD Radio Technology can deliver high-quality digital
sound—AM digital will have FM-like quality (in stereo)
and FM digital will have CD-like quality—with staticfree and clear reception. Furthermore, stations can offer
text and data, such as artist names and song titles.
• When the HD Radio tuner box is connected, it can also
receive conventional analog broadcasts.
• Many HD Radio stations also offer more than one
channel of programming. This service is called
multicasting.
• To find HD Radio stations in your area, visit
<http://www.hdradio.com/>.
Refer also to pages 9 and 10 for basic radio
operations.
