Well, there is nothing positive about IBOC/HD.

It helps FM a whole bunch here on the back side of the San Gabriels.
It's very multipath forgiving.

If you actually went to that message board and read the comment about
iBiquity's confidentiality agreement, and the gag clause, it does kind
of explain why so many, not only here and in other locations speak so
passionately about IBOC. And why you never really hear much more than
the corporate line come out of anyone's mouth.


I know before IBOC was approved, I used to hear a lot of commentary
and complaints about potential problems, inteference, noise and such,
from the engineers I hung out with.

Today, they never say a word.

If for no other reason than that, support for iBiquity should be
withdrawn.

I don't know what happened in this country, or when we made the turn,
but I'm heartily dismayed at the number of times every day I run into
someone unwilling, or unable to speak a truth due to the potential for
legal repercussion. I thought The Truth was the ultimate defense.

Apparently, not so anymore.
