Is that bad news for Eduardo?
Just getting up in the morning and having to fake it through another day
is bad
news for 'Eduardo'.
It's not good or bad news. It is one company which wants to further study
and maybe request modifications of night HD. What the bad news is has to do
with the declining and ageing listenership of AM... HD was a hope that had a
slim chance of reversing this.
The end is near, Edurado - word has gotten out about the HD Radio
farce:
"Is HD Radio Toast?"
"There are serious issues of coverage. Early adopters who bought HD
radios report serious drop-outs, poor coverage, and interference. The
engineers of Ibiquity may argue otherwise and defend the system, but
the industry has a serious
PR problem with the very people we need to
get the word out on HD... In New York City, the #1 market in the
country, there are 25 stations broadcasting 42 HD channels. You'll
find CHR, AC, Classic Rock, Hip-Hop, News, Talk, and Sports. In other
words, everything you can find on the regular FM dial... The word has
already gotten out about HD Radio. People who have already bought an
HD Radio are telling others of their experience (mostly bad) and no
amount of marketing will reverse this."
