    HD Radio

    OK, that answers one of my questions. Stupid, yes, but I can live with it. Maybe someone has already hacked that, or will sometime soon. What I can't figure out is how to change the multicast. I have had the same station from multi-cast 1 to multi-cast 2, but for the life of me, I can't figure out how I changed from one to the other. This is very straightforward on the head unit in my other car, but on the F700, it is a bit of a mystery. Any help? So far, that's my only complaint. geosynch
  2. OK, so I plugged the thing in a** backwards. I was motivated to see if that was the problem, but unmotivated to pull the subwoofer. So, I got my 11 year old to get his fingers around the plug (tight squeeze under the dash of a smart car) and viola! I now have HD Radio. Thanks for the quick and accurate replies. geosynch
  3. Thanks for the quick response. I don't think that's it, but won't know for sure until I look. I guess if that is the biggest mistake I made in the install, I'll be doing OK. Unfortunately, I can't get access to that plug until I pull the sub. Installing the sub was a real b!tch, too. I won't have time to do it until probably the weekend. Best, geosynch
  4. Hi, I'm new here, so sorry if this has already been covered (although I did search and didn't find anything). I just installed a F700BT with a HD Radio input source. The unit plays CD fine, but the HD Radio has no sound at all. Here are the symptoms: * HD Radio is available on the input menu screen (i.e. isn't grey'd out like Sirius, which isn't installed). * When I select HD Radio, and tune it to a known station, the station ID comes on. * I can see the song that is currently playing scrolling across the screen. I have verified in another car that has HD Radio that the song t
  5. The pink wire is simply for when you loose satellite signals. The nav can then estimate your distance traveled by integrating your speed. An example of why you might care is say you needed to make an exit after leaving a two mile long tunnel. Without the pink wire your nav wouldn't know you traveled two miles, since in a tunnel you can't pick up GPS signals. You exit the tunnel, and before the nav picks up the signal and figures out where you are, you already blew past your exit. But if you had the pink wire properly connected, the nav would "know" you travelde those two miles in th
