My favorite local FM Station is using HD Radio ?

My local FM radio station is now broadcasting in High Definition. This, of course requires a High Definition tuner which would be quite the jump for me as I am currently using a vintage Fisher early-sixties tuner.

I would like to run the signal through my high-end DAC. does anybody know anything about this? Any thoughts whatsoever are appreciated, including opinions on hardware.

Thanks for the two links. It would be nice to hear from someone who is listening to local digital radio.

Perhaps I can find more on www.fmtuner.com

I did listen to my favorite FM station in both HD and analog in a car radio. Your above post is the first I have heard of that incorporates HD FM in an in-home environment.

The comparison that I could do with the car radios showed an improvement with HD radio.

I have been on occasion following Hifying's lead to the DaySequerra web site and they finally posted some info on their new HD tuner.

Looks like they will be the first to come out with an in-house tuner as all others are still made for automobiles.
