Sure. You can use it if you want to. It won't hurt anything. But it won't work very well.

What is HD radio?

"HDTV" is high definition TV, so naturally, it's easy to understand that "HD" radio is high definition radio. Except that it's not. "HD" radio originally stood for "Hybrid Digital" radio. Now it's the trademark for iBiquity's in-band on-channel (IBOC) digital radio technology used by AM and FM radio stations to transmit audio and data via a digital signal in conjunction with their analog signals. According to iBiquity's website, the "HD" is simply a brand name and has no meaning. There is no connection with HDTV, although like HDTV, the HD Radio specification provides enhanced capabilities over the old analog format, such as 5.1 surround sound.


How do you improve auto am radio reception?

Refer http://www.anythingbutipod.com/forum/showthread.php?t=7706 Quote from "Ziny": Here's an idea which I tried on my Creative Zen Microphoto to improve the radio reception.This method should help any mp3 player which uses the headphone cable as an FM radio antenna.1) Connect a 2 into 1 stereo jack into the player.2) Connect a stereo extension cable into one of the two plugs. I use a 2 meter cable for this purpose. I leave the other end of this extension cable bare (unused).Note: A shielded coaxial cable is NOT recommended.3) Connect your headphones into the second stereo plug, leading directly from the player.This method improves reception whilst not using any more power. I know that autoscan picks up more stations using this method so I know the antenna is more sensitive. Spurious interference noise is also reduced.It seems paradoxical that the better the signal to noise ratio is, of the player, the more noticeable the extra noise is!The microphoto makes an excellent radio and is fantastic when picking up a clean stereo signal. I think it actually shows which radio stations have the best quality transmitting equipment.Of course there is room for improvement in sound quality reception, but I am happy with the improvement made so far.Thanks PS. With respect to the 2 into 1 stereo connector (splitter), get one with gold or nickel type non-corroding fittings. Brass type fittings will oxidise and increase contact resistance at the connections, reducing antenna effectiveness over time. Thanks.


Can i use an Old DVD player and new HDTV?

You should be able to, if you have a composite input. Try looking for a grouping of one red, one white and one yellow colored RCA style connections. The red is for the right channel sound in, the white is for the left and the yellow is for the video input. Then it's just a matter of choosing the correct input on your remote to view the DVD player.


Trying to find live well HDTV show motion music?

Hey, I love the music that's on that show as well. I searched Youtube and several sites but came up empty, but then I read somewhere that you can only find and buy the songs at itunes.com. The reason is that it is Disney owned music and it's part of a private library of the Disney collection. Once on itunes you should search the terms ''Motion Live Well'' or ''Live Well Network'' or ''Motion''. Something along those lines. All songs have not been added, so if you don't find the song you are looking for, it could mean it has not been uploaded yet. Just check back from time to time.-Celsius46


How do you copy songs from itunes to ipod?

When you buy a song off the itunes store it automatically goes into your itunes library. Which then goes onto your ipod when you connect it.You can use limewire to get free songs. Its only illegal if you try to sell the music. Limewire is free to download and you can search you favorite music and download it for free. Once you have downloaded youre music highlight it and press delete. It will put it on youre lime wire libary. Next go to itunes then click FILE then click ADD FILE TO LIBARY. This should get you started. If this info has helped you I also have a question that needs answering (can you connect a white wire cable to an HDTV?) Please answer!
