From Radio Magazine’s online newsletter:

 

·  Number of HD Radio Users Surpasses 500
Philadelphia - Sep 23, 2005 - There are now more than 500 AM and FM stations across the United States broadcasting with Ibiquity's HD Radio technology. Stations serving each of the top 50 U.S. markets are offering digital HD Radio coverage, including: Detroit (21 stations on the air), Los Angeles (19), Chicago (19), Atlanta (18), Miami (16), Boston (15), San Francisco (15) and New York City (14). Some significant events have contributed to this momentum:

·  BMW announced that it will be the first auto manufacturer to offer an HD Radio receiver as a factory installed option in 2006.

·  Twenty-three of the leading broadcast groups made commitments to convert more than 2,000 stations to HD Radio technology.

·  NPR, Westwood One and the Jones Radio Networks announced new feeds of music and news programming tailored to broadcasters seeking content for their multicast channels.

·  HDRadioPlaybook.com was launched to provide tools to promote HD Radio and educate listeners on the system's new services.

·  In 2005, HD Radio receiver products are currently or will shortly be available from ADA, Alpine, Boston Acoustics, DaySequerra, Eclipse, JVC, Kenwood, Panasonic, Radiosophy, Rotel, Sanyo and Yamaha.

 

Of course, they don’t tell you how many are AM and how many are FM.
