Features Built-in AM/FM tuner for HD Radio (IBOC system*) broadcasts Digital broadcasts can now be heard along with conventional analog broadcasts thanks to the incorporation of the IBOC system that adds digital signals to the existing analog radio signals. As a result, during digital reception AM broadcasts take on a sound quality comparable to FM broadcasts, and FM broadcasts have a sound quality on a par with CDs. The station names, call signs, artists and song titles can also be displayed.
