Selecting Multicast Channels
FM HD Radio stations can transmit multiple programs
on the same frequency by using what are called multicast
channels. If the current HD Radio station is broadcasting
multicast channels, the SPS (secondary program ser-
vices) indicator lights up.
Selecting the Audio Format (Blend Mode)
HD Radio stations transmit both analog and digital ver-
sions of their programs and you can choose which one
you want to listen to.
Note:
Multicast channels 2 through 8 only carry a digital sig-
nal, so to select an audio format, you must select multi-
cast channel #1 first.
