How about that price too? You could get a Lif time Subscription from Sirius
Satellite Radio or 5 years of XM for that price.
The only other one I know about is the kenwood IBOC tuner. But you need a
HU to go along with it. I think It's around $800.00 total for the tuner and
HU.

Clear Channel are leading American radio and speeding up the industry's
adoption of digital technology and has agreed a deal to make 1,000 of
its
stations digital. The broadcaster will use the iBiquity, in-band HD
system,
developed by iBiquity Digital Corporation, a company in which Clear
Channel
has a small interest. By 2007 San Antonion-based Clear Channel expects
to
convert 95 per cent of its 1,200 AM and FM stations to digital in its
top
100 markets, which include the Baltimore-Washington area, as well as New
York and Cincinnati. Initially the conversion will cost about £70,000 a
station, but the price is expected to decrease as the R & D costs are
reclaimed.

Good news if one is lucky enough to find where to buy a digital radio
for terrestrial reception. Except for satellite radio, terrestrial
digital radio is a well kept secret. There is one digital AM radio
station in the NYC area, WOR 710 KHZ, and no available receiver. I get a
blank stare when I ask the so-called technical expert retail guy if
their store sells digital AM radios. Maybe in the future there will be
an after market auto radio capable of digital AM/FM reception and short
wave DRM digital reception.
