What is HD Radio™ Technology?

HD Radio Broadcasting was approved by the Federal Communications Commission in October 2002 as the system for digital AM and FM broadcasting in the U.S.

HD Radio technology features include:

• Static-free, clear radio reception.

• FM Multicasting - the ability to broadcast multiple program streams over a single FM frequency.

• A variety of “data services,” including text-based information - artist name, song title, etc., scrolled across your receiver display.

• Digital broadcasts in the same frequencies as analog broadcasts; listeners do not need to learn a new station number and today’s stations remain at their current place on the dial.

HD Radio technology is developed and licensed by iBiquity Digital Corporation and supported by the leaders of the broadcasting, consumer electronics and automotive industries.

iTunes Tagging

The iTunes Tag button on this unit allows you to tag songs you like that are broadcast by HD Radio stations. Information about these tagged songs is stored by the receiver and transferred to your iPod. When you connect your iPod to your computer, iTunes automatically presents songs in a new Tagged playlist so you can preview, buy, and download them. iTunes Tagging is a great way to discover new music, and add it to your collection!

Using iTunes Tagging

You can save the name of a song broadcast on an HD Radio station to this unit with a few easy steps. After transferring the song information to the connected iPod using this unit, sync your iPod to your computer. These songs will show up in a “Tagged” playlist in iTunes, enabling easy preview or purchase of songs.

For details on iTunes Tagging and the latest iTunes Tagging compatible models, check the iTunes website at - http://www.apple.com/itunes/
