When HD Radio broadcasts are active, you can access the following functions:
Action and Description Message
Allows you to hear a brief sampling of all available stations. This feature
still works when HD Radio reception is on, although it does not scan for
HD2-HD7 channels. You may see the HD logo appear if the station has
a digital broadcast. Scan
Allows you to save an active channel as a memory preset. Touch and
hold a memory preset slot until the sound returns. There is a brief mute
while the radio saves the station. Sound returns when finished. When
switching to an HD2 or HD3 memory preset, the sound mutes before
the digital audio plays, because the system has to reacquire the digital
signal. Presets
Note: As with any saved radio station, you cannot access the saved station if your vehicle
is outside the station’s reception area.
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

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.
