If the GPS can't get a signal, there is an additional led that will be on to indicate signal loss.. The cl...

HD Radio

I see that some cars have HD radio tuning capabilities.
Does anyone know if there is such a tuner/radio for home use ? I haven't been able to find anything..
I did find a stand alone streaming web radio. but not the same thing.
