Okay. By that reasoning, because HD Radio sits "next to" the AM
signal, then it is not IBOC either. It is a simulcast format.
Do you agree with that statement?


As a whole? No.


- There is no technical difference.
- Both HD radio and DRM operate on the same principles:
- 2 separate signals
- 1 analog
- 1 digital
- the digital is simulcast "next to" the original analog signal


iBquity's IBOC Broadcast System is 'Intrinsic'
DRM's Simulcast Broadcast Scheme is NOT 'Intrinsic'





That distinction is more about FAITH, than reality. There's no real
difference between DRM's version (sitting next-to the AM signal) and
HD's version (also sitting next-to the AM signal).

Neither sits their digital signal on-top of the AM!
That would not work.
Duh.
