About HD Radio™ Technology

HD Radio technology allows CD-quality digital broadcasting of your local AM and FM radio stations. HD Radio broadcasts can include multiple channels on the same frequency, which is called multicasting. With multicasting, you can receive up to eight additional multicast channels: HD1~HD8. With your VM9423 radio, you will receive HD Radio digital broadcasts automatically when tuned to a station that offers HD Radio technology.
