"Why the drop outs?

"I just installed the jvc hdr1hd radioin my accord. I have the
antenna that is in the rear window.. I recieve alot of thehd radio
stations, but I am also getting alot of drop outs in my reception...
then it takes up to 10 seconds, sometimes less, to get the music
back.... I searched for some kind of antenna amplifier, but no deal....
is this normal forhd radio, do I need to buy a new antenna, if I am
receiving my regular stations fine? I am in NJ.. I get alot of the NJ
and NY hd stations which is the reason why I purchased it.... thanks
in advance..."

"HD1 should switch back to analog FM, this can be very very very
annoying if the volume level or timing is way off, but you should not
experience a dropout. HD2 and HD3 are subject to frequent dropouts
making their use in a moving vehicle more than annoying. Gerrrrr. Just
who thought this was going to be a practical technology since most
people listen to radio in their moving vehicles? I don't experience
these issues with AM HD and it does sound 100 times better than
conventional reception on today's poor AM radios."

This inherently-flawed digital system is never going to work,
especialy in-dash!

The system works as expected. The problem is that peoples expectations
are out of line. People want trouble free reception and this system will
not do that.

I don't know where you got the quote from but I have listened to HD AM
radio and the sound quality sucks. HD AM sounding better than analog is
pure BS. There is no technical reason to believe that HD AM can sound
better than analog.

I'll just keep on waiting for these 2nd generation radios to come out
before I give HD another try.

The problem lies in the low-power IBOC signals, so new receivers won't
help much, besides with digital, it's all-or-nothing, which consumers
won't put up with.- Hide quoted text -

AND, neither will the proposed 10db FM-HD power increase help - it
will result in unacceptable adjacent-channel interference, and require
HD broadcasters to replace all transmitters, antennas, STLs, etc., so
it isn't going to happen. Broadcasters are broke, and stocks in the
dumpsters.
