They're transmitting IBOC sidebands now.

Yeah, and WBBM has theirs back on today as well.

IBOC = QRM

It doesn't take a rocket scientist or electrical engineer to understand
the over all quality of reception for analog receivers will get worse
with increasing use of digital transmission modes. Concurrent analog and
digital transmissions are compatible but can only make analog reception
worse. Anybody telling you different is lying to you.

It is stupid to implement digital transmission in a way that degrades
current analog reception. Part of the AMBCB band should be allocated to
digital or the band expanded for digital transmissions. Same for the
awful noise generated by DRM on the short wave bands.
