HD Radio technology
HD Radio technology allows CD-quality digital broadcasting of your local AM and FM radio stations. HD Radio broadcasts can include multiple channels on the same frequency, which is called multicasting. With multicasting, you can receive up to eight additional multicast channels. With the installation of the THD309 Radio Module, you will receive HD Radio digital broadcasts automatically when tuned to a station that offers HD Radio technology.

Not all FM or AM stations offer HD Radio (digital) broadcasting. However, you can receive both analog and digital stations with the unit.

Real-Time Data
The VZ309 can display information provided by various HD stations, along with the default display of stereo indicator, frequency, band, and clock.

Radio stations are offering a variety of useful messages that scroll across radio display screens, including:

• Artist name and song title
• Live weather and real-time traffic updates
• Local news, sports scores and school closings
• Emergency information and much more coming soon!

The amount of information displayed when receiving HD Radio signal is dependent upon what is being broadcast.

HD Radio Program Type Scan
Equipped with the THD309, The VZ309 displays "Program Type" categories for HD programming. This allows you to find similar programming by genre. Just rotate the knob to change the category, press the rotary button to select program category, and the radio will start scanning for stations broadcasting in the selected category.

Up to six stations on each band (3 FM and 2 AM bands for a total of 30 analog or HD presets) can be stored as presets, which can then be instantly recalled by pressing the associated preset button.

Great upgrade to your radio but I live in the sticks so it doesn't allow me to use all the features.

I bought this HD tuner as a combo deal with a Clarion head unit. Both work great together. Power, clarity, and at a great price. Can't beat it.

Installation was easy and all the features work well. The only thing bad about this unit is the screen flicker from time to time for about 12 to 14 seconds.
