LISTEN
TO THIS!
Stop.
And listen. Imagine a place where you can hear CD-quality music,
choose from hundreds of stations and see the artist name and
title on your screen—all without interference. Welcome
to the world of digital radio. With millions of people around
the world now able to receive digital radio transmission, crystal
clear sound is well within your reach.
Digital radio is taking the old broadcast
media into the digital age. Digital radio is almost immune to
the sort of interference that can make listening to today’s
conventional AM or FM radio less than satisfying. If you listen
to FM in the car, you may have noticed hisses and pops as you
drive along. That’s caused by multipath interference when
the FM signal bounces off buildings, trees and hills and arrives
at your receiver out of phase with the main signal, confusing
the transmission. Digital radio corrects this, which means that
even in the most difficult listening environments—the
center of a city with high-rise apartments and office buildings—the
digital radio signal remains absolutely perfect. Digital radio
also provides additional content, currently not available on
the AM/FM dial. And, new features such as on-demand radio, surround
sound and rewind radio are possible with digital radio.
Two standards lead this listening revolution.
Eureka-147 Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB) broadcasts in several
countries: the United Kingdom, Germany and Canada. And it’s
found in Asia in such places as Singapore and Taiwan. In the
U.S., HD Radio™ technology is the FCC-selected standard
for digital audio broadcasting. So today, wherever you are,
wherever you …you can be enthralled by the wonderful
world of digital radio. |
