WHAT IS HD?
101.7 The Patriot, also known as KABT-FM/HD1, broadcasts in the Abilene area in HD Radio. Similar to what HD was for television broadcasts 15 years ago, HD Radio is a way of transmitting the Big Country's biggest variety of music to you digitally, crystal clear, and with better audio quality than you've ever heard on the radio before.
Most late model vehicle audio systems are equipped with HD Radio receivers. All you need to do to receive our HD signal is to make sure your radio's HD modes are not disabled (check your manual, or call us for help!). Traveling in our fringe signal? Don't worry, your radio will automatically switch to our traditional signal as needed.
