Default HD radio won't just go away.

Or, the simple answer: there is a huge decline in the number of SW
stations, and also in SW listeners. Domestic SW, the nicest DX, is
all but disappearing and the quality broadcasters are reducing
schedules or suspending service.


Yeah like you would know.


You are in denial on this, too? How many SW stations did Colombia
have in 1967? And how many now? How many total SW hours does the VOA
produce today? 1967? How many SW transmitters and what powers and
hours did HCJB have in the 60's vs. today?

Now do the same statistics for FM. Colombia had zero FMs in '67, now
80% of the listening is to FM, of which there are now more than AMs
in the country. There is a migration from SW to Am to FM. And now to
digital.


Some have gone, some have changed, some are new. Things change so what.
