Welcome to HD radio
Your new Insignia audio system lets you listen to
digital AM and FM programming. To help you get
the most out of your Insignia HD Radio receiver
experience, please read these tips:
HD Radio broadcasting quality
You will be amazed by the superior CD-like
sound of FM HD Radio stations, and the FM-like
sound of AM stations. Pops, hisses and
dropouts are a thing of the past with an HD
Radio receiver. Hearing is believing.
HD2 multicasting - how do I get these new
channels?
HD2 multicasting means more free FM channels
and new programming available from local FM
stations, which you can ONLY hear on your new
HD Radio receiver by just tuning up or down the
dial. Across the country, local FM stations are
offering a wide variety of new formats and
content on their HD2 channels, including more
music, news, sports. You can tune in to anything
from reggae, blues, classic jazz, to future
country, new alternative, deep tracks, bluegrass,
and local artists. Visit hdradio.com to find new
HD Radio broadcasting stations in your area.
Is HD Radio broadcasting the same as satellite
radio?
No. HD Radio broadcasting is subscription
free… your favorite local AM and FM radio
stations broadcasting digitally, producing
radically improved sound, and many more new
FREE FM channels.
Let’s get started! Tuning in to HD Radio
broadcasting
Tune your new HD Radio receiver up or down
the same way you do with your traditional radio.
Once an HD Radio broadcasting station is tuned
in you will hear approximately 5 seconds of
analog sound/signal while the receiver is
blending the digital signal, then the receiver will
lock the digital signal. During that 5 seconds,
the HD Radio logo will blink. Once the digital
signal is locked, the HD Logo will stop blinking
and remain lit.
From the primary (main) HD1 frequency, you can
tune into a multicast station (HD2 and HD3).
Simply use the radio’s controls to tune up one
step. You will see the frequency display change
for example from 99.1-HD1 to 99.1-HD2.
Should you lose digital signal, your HD Radio
receiver will default to analog signal on the main
station. Multicast stations (HD2 and HD3) are
“digital only” stations. Should you lose the digital
signal of a multicast station (for example, when
driving through a tunnel), there will be no sound
coming from your radio, as if it were on mute.
You can tune back to the main station to hear its
analog broadcast, or wait for the HD-2 station
signal to re-lock.
A note on indoor reception and antenna placement
Always make sure you have the antenna
properly hooked up directly into the HD Radio
receiver. If you are in a building with poor
reception (metal beams, concrete walls), try to
locate the receiver by a window for better
reception. If your HD Radio receiver will not
respond, power down the unit to reset the tuner,
and then power it back up again.
Safety information

an equilateral triangle is intended to alert you to
the presence of uninsulated dangerous voltage
within your shelf system’s enclosure that may be
of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of
electric shock.
The exclamation point within an equilateral
triangle is intended to alert you to the presence of
important operating and maintenance (servicing)
instructions in the literature accompanying your
