Funny how not one station in the market has made an FCC complaint,
listening
levels have not changed, and nobody else has mentioned this.


Plenty of people are talking about it. Perhaps the problem is that no
one is listening.


Describe a couple of these supposedly plentiful cases of NYC stations
being
interferred with inside their interference free contours.


Pick any two NYC AM stations and I'll check them out.

WADO and WCAA.


Both sound terrible from IBOC splatter.


The mere fact that the ratings, which came out 15 minutes ago, show no
changes in listening levels in the NY market, disproves your point.


It's an amazing "rating" that can "disprove" the truth. Very lame even
by your anemic standards.

Were there interference that made radio unpleasant to listen to, the overall
PUR (Persons Using radio) would decline as people listened less or not at
all and picked other forms of entertainment.


I think the poor programming has already made the radio so unpleasant
to listen to that interference can now do little additional harm.

Ratings also quantify the
number of persons using radio and the time they listen, so any such problem
would be immediately shown.- Hide quoted text -

Yes, they'd better develop a better methodology as it obviously isn't
working.
