Abstract
A system for blending a hybrid radio signal provides reduced volume level transitions during blending from an analog component of the hybrid signal to the digital component by adjusting blend and cross-fade variables, as well as setting a hysteresis mode to prevent undesirable jumping from digital mode back to analog mode sequentially. The system also compensates for digital AM frequency quality issues by adjusting a filter bandwidth when the transceiver blends the AM signal from analog to digital mode.
