HD Radio: Anyone know about it.

[medjuck]

I've googled it and skimmed the entry in Wikipedia but haven't read anything that suggests it offers better sound. Am I missing something and do I need to read more? (I have noticed that HD does not stand for High Definition and has nothing to do with HD TV-- which I love.)

The station I work form began broadcasting in HD format last year. You won't notice the difference unless you can compare a signal on a regular radio then hear a HD radio air the same thing. Even spoken word sounds better. One oddity of the setup: because our station uses a dedicated DSL phone line to get the signal to the transmitter, there is a seven second delay of the HD broadcast, so I can walk from the studio to the outer office and feel like I'm briefly going back in time.
