HD Radio On Hot 93.9 Hawaii

Loving the fact that HD Radio has hit Hawaii. Now when I cruise in my Audi, I can see who the artist and song is that's playing. It will display both on the radio and on my dashboard console. It even shows me the next song getting ready to play when a commercial is on.

Not sure how many radio stations in Hawaii now broadcast in HD, but I know that HOT 93.9 http://www.hot939.com in Honolulu does...baby, baby!

Audi Symphony and HD Radio ROCK!

Hey, what adapters/modules did you use to get that working with your Audi?

[VSBrownBoy]

No special adapters used. I have the SAT/HD radio system that comes with the Audi BOSE Premium sound system. As long as radios are broadcasting in HD, then I get it and in Hawaii several radio stations are in HD now.

They dont even need to be broadcasting in HD, they just need to have RDS, which sends text with the FM audio. Most newer car radios can receive and decode RDS.

lol, I have a 2003 Impala with factory radio (that doesn't even have a CD player) and it also shows the artist and the title of the song being played when I'm on the more popular stations.

I'm planning on getting an HD radio though, the sound gets distorted all the time which is annoying, especially that the speakers are pretty powerful and I keep turning up the volume. So when the signal is messed up its several times more annoying then it would be in a car with shitty stereo.
