DE - So your Answer to Rural Folks is let them
Listen to XM or Sirius Satellite Radio for High
Quality Digital Sound. ~ RHF

Again, the HD signal is digital. There is no 1:1 power comparison. Much
lower powers are effective in digital.


That goes for a 50 KW Analog AM/MW Radio Station
which is only putting out a 500 Watt Digital (1%)

Our experience with a number of 50 kw AMs in HD is that the HD is often
listenable beyond the listenable and usable analog range.
