Oh, thos iBoc folks..............I called them about a year ago, asking
them
about their system. When they explained the virtues of their system, and
what a good deal it was, I asked them how they were going to handle the
multipath effects of evening propagation. I also explained to them that I
didn't thing it was such a good for people to actually have to pay money
out
of their own pockets for a system that actually takes three channels of
spectrum space for one of their transmissions.
They never did respond to my e-mail. I guess they didn't have an answer.
Might have been too busy paying Vicki Stearn.

For the time being, AM IBOC stations are turning off their noise machines
during the night. I'm sure they don't intend that to be permanent.
It's curious that the FCC reduced the AM bandwidth to reduce interference
when they increased the number of stations allowed. Now they're allowing
this ultrawide band system to pollute the spectrum.
