How does an HD radio tuner work?An HD radio receiver broadcasts your favorite local AM and FM channels in digital quality. Unlike an HD digital-channel subscription service, there are no monthly fees. The technology works by using iBiquity's in-band on-channel stations. The result is a clear signal without static.
