What is HD Radio Technology?

HD Radio Technology has the best selection of local radio with amazing features and no monthly fees. All you need is a receiver.

How It Works

Your radio dial is branching out.

By broadcasting digitally over traditional radio waves, a single frequency is now capable of delivering up to four stations of content in crystal clear sound. All you do is tune in to your favourite station and your HD Radio receiver will automatically lock in to the HD1 signal for that station. One notch over on the dial and you’re listening to entirely new content on the HD2 station. Additionally, the digital signal provides on-screen information such as album art, song info, traffic and weather.

More Local Stations

HD radio stations broadcast a digital signal over traditional radio frequencies, allowing for up to three additional stations of new local content.

Let’s say your favourite local radio station is on 96.9FM. With HD Radio technology, that same station is being broadcast in digital sound on 96.9 HD1. Plus you can access all new content on up to three additional stations: 96.9 HD2, HD3, and HD4.
