I guess you could say that, but I'm not sure that a good analog FM signal wouldn't already qualify as "near CD quality" sound...especially on a good tuner. I wanted to see what HD Radio was about (especially the subchannels), but I wasn't about to pay any $100 to do so! After looking inside, I'm convinced that someone is doing a pretty good job at inflating the price! > Being one that listens to music on the road I got really > disgusted with the ever increasing amount of commercials. Me too. And it's hard to find what I want to hear on the radio anyway. Stations seem so mercurial in their format changes any more...what format was on the radio an hour ago might not be there later... My solution has been to use an iPod, plugged into a cassette shell adapter or stereo miniplug to RCA connector cable. It's a beautiful thing to have on a long road trip. Before I had an iPod, I'd stick an old laptop under the seat and let it rip through the same cassette shell adapter. The battery held it for most trips, and when it didn't, I already had a power inverter handy. I also never hear a bad song that way. I haven't subscribed to satellite radio mainly because I can't listen to it on just any old receiver. So far as I know, I'd have to take the same receiver everywhere, and that's just an invitation for me to lose/misplace it. William

Isn't the purpose of this group to ask electronics related questions and get answers? Sure, a web search can answer the question. So can this group, and I don't think it unreasonable that they do! I don't know how many people have heard HD Radio or even really care about it. I don't know anyone who has an HD Radio tuner, nor have I seen one in my adventures. William
