As usual, a model for amateur radio has already been established. As soon as it dawns upon the citizens there, they will be able to implement those models, and yes, once again, claim to have "developed them."

"The model?", you ask. Why it is the internet. Already there, the citizens are not slaving under any un-workable equip., software, methods, or conditions. Now, a work-a-like only needs to be setup and established for amateur radio.

Interesting article about High Definition radio. The article ends with the
following quote: "...eventually, stations will broadcast only digitally --
Stearn says that point probably won't be reached for 15 years -- and every
radio you now own will become a useless relic that you'll try to unload on
eBay."

Before you start selling all your analog radios, please understand that the
speaker of the quote was Vicki Stearn, a spokesman for iBiquity, whose
future depends upon HD radio becoming popular.

My guess is that analog radio will outlive iBiquity.


Amateurs are free to use digital methods are they not?
