The Power of Multicasting.
HD Radio offers multicasting, which means current FM stations provide more than
one program stream on their existing frequency. **With creative new programming,
you get new extra FM multicasting from HD2 and HD3 multicast channels above
and beyond the main station channels, which means more music, news and sports
in crystal-clear sound and commercial free. Local FM stations offer a wide variety
of new formats on their HD2 channels including reggae, blues, classic jazz,
future country, new alternative, deep tracks, bluegrass and local artists. More
than 200 HD Radio stations across the United States offer two to three additional
channels above and beyond their analog and main digital channels, with many
more expected to go on the air this year. Stations are using their HD2 multicast
channels to experiment with new music and news formats, showcase young artists
and local bands, offer non-English language programming, and more.
*Viewing song, artist and
station information may vary in different areas. Visit HD Radio for more information.
