[Electronics-talk] Accessible HD/FM Radio Announced

[Jacob Struiksma]

Most stations do not have   commercials.  I have HD radio that I have for
long time that was birthday president.  I like my HD radio.  The only thing
is that the screen does not talk.

>From what I've read and heard about HD radio, not all cities offer it, and
those that do offer it, locations can prevent signal access.
I love the way they advertise it as being, "More music, more stations."
What they should say is, "More music, more commercials; that is, if you can
get the signal."
I thought there'd be no commercials.  So I didn't buy a radio--and also, the
inaccessibility situation.
