A few thoughts as nighttime IBOC operation looms later this week...

You are a tool and a robot. I am in your so-called ''metro survey
area'' but I am way out of the coverage area of all but 2 local
stations at night, therefore I am part of the half of the population
that lives outside the suburbs.
Half the population lives in the top 50 Arbitron metros. Just the top 50.
And 82% live in the 300 rated markets.
I believe that you have mentioned living in or about Canyon Country, CA. You
can not get many stations because of terrain obstructions, but you certainly
have Internet and other options.
How many people watch TV at night? How many don't? How many of those
that don't listen to the radio? How many of those listen to AM radio?
Of those who are not at work or sleeping in 6 PM to Midnight, virtually all
watch TV. On the other hand, less than 7% are listening to radio at night,
and less than 1.3% are listening to AM.
Until last night, the flamethrowers ruled the Bohemian airwaves, for
people who aren't slaves to the idiot box.
Bohemia is in Europe, where some nations have decided to simply eliminate
AM.
