"Stars line up for 'Simpsons'"


"Radio ratings: Clear Channel's WLW-AM (700) was the big winner in
spring quarter Arbitron ratings, taking first place with all adults in
morning, midday, afternoon and evening ratings."


And there is no other AM for the next 13 ranked positions in the market.


Even your fellow IBOC shills know AM-HD is dead - From Mike Walker
avsforum today:


AM itself is near-death, but HD AM is on nearly every viable AM in the top
75 to 100 markets.


"In-Stat: Digital Radio Set to Take Off"

"In 2006, 73 percent of respondents to an In-Stat U.S. consumer survey
were aware of HD Radio on some level."

"Sirius, XM, and HD: Consumer interest reality check" (Alexaholic)

"While interest in satellite radio is diminishing, interest in HD
shows no signs of a pulse."

This just confirms, the lack of interest for HD Radio, on Google

"Rethinking AM's Future"

"Only 175 or so AM stations have even licensed AM-HD. For a number of
reasons, quite a few have tried it and taken it off the air, or so the
anecdotal evidence suggests. Ibiquity no longer reports in its public
summaries whether a station is on the air."

Existing RDS has the same texting functions, as HD/IBOC. For now, HD
Radio/IBOC is dead. AM news/talk/sports is alive-and-well - WLW AM is
ranked #1 !
