Default "FCC: Market to Decide Fate of HD Radio"

"FCC: Market to Decide Fate of HD Radio"

"According to staff testimony at the meeting (which starts at
~1:01:00), the FCC appears unconcerned with HD Radio's potential
pitfalls and more than willing to let the industry set the pace of
radio's analog/digital transition... AM stations are now free to
broadcast in HD 24/7, though there is nothing in the technical record
that suggests iBiquity has done anything substantive to improve or
mitigate interference problems caused by HD skywave signals...
Finally, all petitions for reconsideration filed in the digital radio
proceeding asking the FCC to consider alternatives to the HD Radio
standard have been dismissed en masse, no reason given."
