HD Radio - What is It?
HD Radio technology allows digital information to be broadcast along the same channels as AM/FM radio. The system allows listeners to enjoy "CD-quality" sound and virtually eliminates the static, signal fading, and pops typical of traditional radio. 

What are the benefits? 
* FM broadcasts with CD-quality sound.
* Broadcasts are static-free, without pops, hiss, and signal fading. 
* It's FREE, just like today's analog AM and FM radio.

In order to listen to 88.9 KSEF-HD you need an HD Radio receiver.

KRCU broadcasts 24 hours a day from facilities located on the campus of Southeast Missouri State University in Cape Girardeau and provides practical broadcast experience for students of the University.

KRCU is affiliated with National Public Radio, PRX and American Public Media. These programming services provide many public radio favorites like All Things Considered, Morning Edition, 1A and Mountain Stage.
