Default Digital Radio Comment/Question

why purchase a receiver that presently receives analog transmissions


I don't understand your question. You make it sound as though
listening to the big international broadcasters is the only reason
someone would buy a communications receiver, when that obviously isn't
true. I'm operating on LSB or USB just about 85% of the time and
that's true of a lot of folks out there.

Besides, if people have no interest in listening to BCB and SW
stations (the big uns) in analog, switching over to HD isn't going to
make a difference. If you aren't interested in listening to Alex
Jones, how excited will you be to learn that he's now available in
HD?

That's what I thought.
