Using Hd Radio™ Features (U.s.a. Model Only); Selecting Hd Radio™ Audio Programs; Using The Itunes Tagging Feature - Yamaha HTR-6280 Owner's Manual

Using HD Radio™ features (U.S.A. model only)
HD Radio technology is a new technology that enables FM and AM radio stations to broadcast programs digitally.
Digital broadcasting provides listeners with radically improved audio quality and reception as well as new data services.
Furthermore, supplemental program services allow listeners to select from up to 8 HD Radio programs multicast on a
single FM HD Radio channel. For further information on HD Radio technology, visit "http://www.hdradio.com/".
This unit is equipped with an HD Radio reception feature, facilitating CD quality FM broadcasts as well as analog FM
stereo quality AM broadcasts. In addition, this unit can receive both audio and data (such as song titles, artist names,
program types, and comments) from all HD Radio programs (HD1 to HD8).
Notes
• The tuning method for HD Radio stations are same as analog FM/AM radio stations; however, you only tune into the analog part of a hybrid HD Radio
station while this unit is in the monaural tuning mode (page 49).
• This unit is capable of receiving both hybrid and all-digital HD Radio station signals. However, this unit may not automatically receive all-digital FM
station signals and the automatic tuning operation may stop. In this case, enter the frequency of the desired all-digital FM HD Radio station directly by
using the lNumeric keys (page 30).
Selecting HD Radio™ audio programs
The HD indicator lights up in the front panel display when
this unit is tuned into an HD Radio reception band. In this
state, you can select the desired audio program if the
selected FM HD Radio station provides multiple audio
programs (up to 8).
