HD Radio is the ONLY solution I can come up with in order to listen to
ANY AM station in my city - even the very powerful signals - while in
my home office, where I spend a good deal of time. With dimmer
switches, electronic air cleaners, computer, etc. etc. the noise level
wipes out all signals. I have to go to another room in the house if I
want to listen to AM analog. HD Radio is a blessing for me.

With so many complaining about the interference it causes on analog
signals - someone please tell me which analog station(s) in the Fresno
area are getting this interference. I can't locate ANY analog station
with ANY interference when in a "quiet" room in my home, and there are
MANY HD stations broadcasting in Fresno. I use both the CCRadio and
the CCRadio-SW and just don't have that problem, or at least haven't
been able to identify it.

I understand some of the complaints, but the industry isn't concerned
with those who dx. In fact, I have the problem with television
signals. When I moved to the Fresno area from Sacramento, I paid
$1,000 for a large tv antenna installation so that I could pick up the
major stations from Sacramento, about 180 miles from me. Shortly
after paying $1,000, the low-powered stations started appearing all
over the dial and wiped out channels 3 and 13 from Sacramento, channel
12 from Santa Barbara, channel 8 from Salinas, etc. But that's life.

- TV and Radio are for the masses,
- NOT just the few who dx as a hobby.

GA - Radio and Television : They don't call them
Mass Media for nothing -aka- Media for the Masses.

HDTV has solved the tv problem for me as now I get channels 3 and 13
on digital tv. HD Radio solves the problem I have with too much
electrical noise on AM.

No one really cares about the hobbiest. We are left out of the
picture when technology changes.

GA,

A very valid statement by an AM/MW Radio Listener about
the 'positive' side of "HD" AM/MW Radio in today's Noisy
Urban Radio Listening Environment.

I still need to take the Radi-osophy HD100 down to Oakland,
CA to try it out in an Urban Area with many Strong Local
Signals to try it out; and see what I can hear.

Up here in Twain Harte, CA - All I get is the Blinking Blue
Light and No "HD" Signal Lock.

Plus I have noticed some Digital Hash on a few of the
formerly 'clear' AM/MW Radio Signals from :
KNBR 680 kHz
KCBS 740 kHz
KGO 810 kHz

Using a CCRadioPlus+ Radio ; GE Superadio III Radio;
Grundig S350 Radio; or a Redsun RP2100 Radio; and
a Select-A-Tenna : I use to be able to Tune any of the
above SF Bay Area AM/MW Radios Stations and hear
Perfectly "Clear" Audio. Now there is always some
buzz or hiss that is part of the Sound being heard.
