Default HD radio won't just go away.

The point you do not understand since you do not live around here is AM
does better day or night than FM. Even the low rolling hills on the
coast let alone the larger mountains inland make for very poor FM
reception so your arguments that FM sounds better is bogus. AM is
superior over FM around here at least. I'll bet you have never driven
route 1 along the coast in Ventura or LA counties. FM really sucks on
that road that runs along the ocean.


I have only driven that route a few dozen times. The local FMs (the ones
with decent in market signals) sound fine.

There are spots where there is multipath, but HD will reduce or eliminate
that.


Try driving it again. Ocean on one side and high cliffs on the other
such that FM is pretty much dead. You will not pick up anything from the
LA area just a few stations from up or down the coast. Must be a magic
radio in your car or you have never driven that road. Every post you
make, makes you look less real to me.
