News/talk/sports is alive-and-well on the "clears".


That's about 20 stations, all of which are declining in sales demos and
billings.


That's bull****, shill:


There are only these (former designation) 1-A clears: KFI, WSM, WFAN, WSCR,
WLW, WGN, WSB, WJR, WABC, WBBM, WBAP, WCCO, WHAS, WWL, WCBS, WLS, KDKA, WBZ,
WHO, WTAM, KMOX, KSL, WHAM, WOAI, WPHT. 5 of them are not news talk, and all
but KFI had declininng billings in 2006.

Many of these are 50 kw, but not major stations. Remember, about 2 kw on 540
covers more than 50 kw on 1580. Some of the ones on the list are true dogs,
like KBLA and the 1580 in Phoenix.

Analog AM will be around for many years , long after HD Radio/IBOC has
died - interesting, you never tried to counter my other posts. HD
Radio/IBOC is already dead.


HD was mostly developed for FM, where over 1000 stations are on the air. A
significant portion of major AMs in the US are on in HD.
