Sony XDR-F1HD?

Featured Replies

HD radio is crap, it's the worst sounding form of radio so far, so I can't imagine there's anything that tuner can do to help it.

HD in this case stands for "high density" not "high definition"

Grawk, I see the bitrates listed in the first review (thought not sure the technology). Could it be even worse than sat radio? Still I wonder how the radio performs for analog FM.

I just unsubscribed from Sirius (held on to it this long mostly for Stern) and although internet radio & podcasts (with their own bitrate issues) will likely fill most of the void, I thought of going back to FM if indeed a good tuner could get more stations.

Anyone have any experience with the Sony XDR-F1HD tuner?

Lots of positive reviews:

... but wondering if anyone here has one?

HD Radio suffers from dropouts, interference, poor coverage, and bland HD channel programming. HD Radio is nothing but a scam!

Okay, I assume no one has one. Even ignoring the HD aspect, the analog FM seems to measure well from the second review.
