We will discuss the receivers that already supporting this technology to give background on what support is out there, and what is on the horizon. This presentation is intended to be both an overview (high level discussion) for non-engineering managers but we will also have a brief lower-level technical discussion for engineers as well. Information will be shared on field evaluations of the tangible of tangible benefits of elevated digital power. And some tips will be shared to help make sure your stations offer the best experience for your listeners.
Why You Should Attend
Most automotive manufacturers are including HD Radio in many of their latest vehicles.
