Bentonville, AR, and Orlando – Mar 5, 2007 – Wal-Mart stores in 85 markets, which encompasses 1,989 stores, have added HD Radio receivers to their shelves. The receiver availability will be added to the HD Digital Radio Alliance’s ad campaign on alliance-member stations. Wal-Mart stores will initially stock the JVC HD-W10 Mobile HD Radio receiver, which retail for less than $190.

This effort from the discount retailer helps bring HD Radio receivers to a wider audience that supplements the existing mid- and high-level retail outlets that already exist.
