Not sure, but I would think it would be digital if you have the head unit that displays radio station info (Radio Data System i think they call it)

Antenna

Is the Cobalt (or anything that shares the antenna) sold in other countries?

Maybe there is a spec in another country that includes a digital radio signal.

Either way, I think you're okay with the analog one.
