SPARC SHD-ITR2BT Owner's Manual
The SHD-ITR2BT is a high-quality tabletop and transportable radio offering the most advanced radio
reception technology—HD Radio™ Technology.
HD Radio Technology
The SHD-ITR2BT tunes both traditional analog AM/FM and new HD Radio digital broadcasts. In digital mode, sound quality is improved, new
broadcast streams (stations) not available in analog are available, and advanced programming information such as Artist and Song Title can be
displayed. To find new digital stations, go to www.hdradio.com/stations.
Primary (HD1) signals are received in both analog and digital. If the digital signal is lost, the radio will automatically blend to the analog signal and
continue to play. However, when receiving the new additional signals (HD2/HD3), there is no analog component: if the signal is lost, the radio will
mute to silence. If this happens, you can wait for the signal to return or simply tune the radio to another station.
