Two stations here in the New York City market (WPAT-AM 93 Paterson and
WZRC-AM 1480 New York) were also trial-running IBOC, in addition to
WOR-710.

The test didn't last for even a month.....

Maybe there's something to do with the processing or what. Who knows.

All I know is, when I'm listening to WOR with IBOC going, there is
also a hiss in the audio - almost like tape hiss. And this is on a
medium quality digitally tuned walkman, so I know I have the station
on the dot.

However, on some realy really low-fi clock radios and pocket radios
the station sounds 'OK' sort of...not including the hissing going down
all the way to 68 and to 74 (where it's sort of overridden by the
splatter from the stations at 66 WFAN and 77 WABC respectively.
