Fm radio goes on the odd tenths of the channel (ei,,,,97.1fm) HD uses the evens(97.2) and is supposed to be a better sound.

i can understand why and HD tv is useful, but what’s up with an HD radio..are hte sounds sharper and crisper or something? i saw one on hte price is right lol
um…not really sure of the price, 250-300?
here’s a site for the stations:
HD does not use the evens. Before the name was changed to HD, the original term was IBOC, standing for In Band on Channel. The HD signal is on the same exact channel as the analog. This is different than digital TV, where the digital and analog programs are on different channels although the PID may show just the analog channel. The HD radio display may show HD1, HD2…. because the HD can have multiple programs. HD1 is always the same as the analog program. HD really shines as an auto receiver, without the noise and multipath distortion of regular FM. For home use it might not be worth the investment unless you need to listen to the extra programming.
