When WIYY-FM 97.9 in Baltimore switched to broadcasting with HD Radio technology, it became the thousandth radio station in the country to do so.
“In just over a year, the number of HD Radio stations on the air has nearly doubled, and we expect to finish 2006 with 1,200 stations,” said Robert Struble, president and CEO of iBiquity Digital Corporation, in a statement.
Equally exciting, he added, is the corresponding growth in HD2 multicasting, which provides listeners with increased content and program choices. Over 400 multicast stations are now on the air. There has also been a rapid influx of new HD Radio receivers, and a rebate program over the holidays will offer consumers $50 back on selected receivers.
Volvo will become the first automaker to offer HD Radio as standard equipment in all but one of its 2009 models. The running change becomes effective next month on the 2009 Volvo model lineup.
