Default FM HD in its current form will likely survive it's unlikely AM HD will fail.

Many were first generation, like the dreadful BA Receptor.


According to iBiquity, the Receptor is probably the best that is
achievable.


It had a crummy 1st generation chipset, and a lousy front end: it is
nowhere
near as good as the monaural non-HD Receptor. And it was discontinued.


Yes, the best achievable portable HD AM receiver crashed and burned.


The BA Receptor HD is not portable. Never has been, never will be.
