How do I get to secondary HD radio stations?

Got the wife into a new GLK yesterday.... after a very long day of looking at lots of compact SUV's.

It's got HD radio. How do we switch to the secondary stations? Like HD2?

EDIT: Figured it out. You need to wait until the HD version of a station locks in, then it'll display a little number by the station that tells you what sub-station you're on. Then you press Right to jump to sub-station 2, 3, etc....

Read the book. Ask your dealer. Did you not get instructions at delivery? Guess: You get to it from the Radio/Audio menu.
I can do it in a 2012 Volvo, but that's a different story.
RANT: How come a 2012 S80 has HD radio and Bluetooth Audio and our 2012 GLK doesn't? Hey!

Glad you got it. Sounds Clunky compared to the other car I am currently driving.

The book says (paraphrasing): in the USA stations can have multiple HD radio stations broadcasting on the same frequency. That's about it.

It's a nice car. I prefer my Audi though. The whole Benz feels clunky to me But that may be bias.

It is same here with my GLK.
Anyone tried to upgrade to HD Radio, wondering how much would it cost? Would this be upgrading the whole command module?

you have options, you can change your head unit to a unit that will include navigation/HD radio/BT, which will be a bit pricey if you are also having them do the installation..
Al and Eds audio is a good place to start researching. If you dont wish to change the head unit you can get some sort of radio you can connect to from the AUX cable too

I picked up my CPO 2015 CLS400 at the end of last month and was able to get some HD2 and 3 stations I listened to in my old car even though the technician helping me with the car pick-up said I couldn't get them. However, the last few days, I haven't been able to find the stations and there is no response when I highlight the stations in my preset list. I only realized last weekend that I have a 3 month trial subscription to Sirius Radio. I just received an invoice for renewal after the trial. I will see how I like the trial

In Satellite Radio - under the bottom left menu - make sure "HD" is checked off -
