radiochuck Posted June 25, 2022 Report Share Posted June 25, 2022 (edited) Hello. I'm having an issue with my Sync3 HD Radio on my 2019 Ford Escape Titanium. FM HD stations work just fine, but I don't get any AM stations in HD. I know there are several AM stations here in the Phoenix market that broadcast in HD and I've been to Los Angeles, where I know there are also several AM stations broadcasting HD Radio, but nothing ever decodes on AM. Again, FM works just fine. I have gone into the menu and made sure that HD Radio is enabled for the AM band, but no luck receiving any AM HD Radio broadcasts. Has anyone here had an issue with this and if so could you please give me some advice. TIA. Edited June 25, 2022 by radiochuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Multitask Posted June 27, 2022 Report Share Posted June 27, 2022 go to a dealer and see what they fine... You can also do the 'factory reset' (only purges settings, not files) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Multitask Posted June 27, 2022 Report Share Posted June 27, 2022 Oh, and as far as I know, AM does not do HD, only FM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm trying to avoid the dealer. May try the factory reset, though. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiochuck Posted April 27, 2023 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2023 (edited) Still no HD Radio on AM stations (yes, it's enabled in settings) and AM presets do not save. I save a station and it's gone the next time I start the car. I haven't tried a factory reset of the radio. Wondering if that move will bear any fruit before I do something that extreme.

Muzicman61 Posted May 8, 2023 Report Share Posted May 8, 2023 I used to live in Phoenix... There are 5 HD AM stations available. 550-1 (KFYI), 860-1 (KNAI-Spanish), 910-1 (KGME), 1230-1 (KOY-Spanish), 1580-1 (KQFN). When I lived there, 550-1 KFYI was the only station I could pick up.

jpohlman Posted February 19 Report Share Posted February 19 You'll find a list of stations here for your area. https://hdradio.com/ In my area there is only one HD AM radio station, while there are 15+ FM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
