PC Card for HD Radio

Hi Everybody.
Does anyone know if there is an HD radio PC card for a car pc? I have been looking for one.
The only info I have found on any HD cards is for HDTV. The web site does say that it will receive FM radio, but I don't know if it is HD.
If anyone has any info on this. Can you pleased reply to this.

Thanks

Nope.
There are no components currently on the market that will receive HD radio for PCs.

Good luck, we're all counting on you.

I don't see this happening anytime soon. HD radio may be picking up interest, but I don't see enough interest to bring a computer component like this. Maybe USB, but will probably be a while.

We are doing good to get decent radio as it is. Let alone HD radio.

If the device make it ways to be used in factory radio, I am sure it will make it way to PC just like XM Direct unit.
It's a mater of time.

Saw that, thanks. Maybe I'll just add it to the head unit instead. May be simpler in the end.

Thanks for the lead on the Griffin product. We use a number of their devices and found them very useful and reliable. I've been looking for an HD radio solution as well and this will do until a board-solution comes around.

HD radio for the PC it does exist!

Ibiquity has a USB HD radio. The UI is a little twitchy but if someone were to incorporate a front end into let's say streetdeck it would be killer.
