Funny, there are about 16 million persons over 12 in the NYC metro area,
and
nobody, other than you, thinks they are "all" being interfered with. That
is
probably because there is no interference at all such as you spoke of.


That is funny, as I have talked to many, many people who have noticed.
Glad to see that you have your finger on the listening public's pulse,
as usual. Now if only you can figure out where the pulse is...


- We have street teams out there every day talking to listners
- of our stations. Despite cuming 2 million New Yorkers,
- we have not heard one complaint of interference inside our
- protected contours other than the routine "when my radio
- is near my computer...." or "when mom puts on the tv...."
- that we all have heard for the last few decades.

d'Eduardo - What would you expect -if- Your Target Audience
is Spanich Speaking Radio Listeners; where the Number of
Spanish Radio Stations "Choices" in a Metro Area is : One,
a Couple, or very Few. A 'Sample' Size that has Attributes
and Charateristics that do not align and correspond with the
Greater non-Spanish Speaking Population {English Speakers}
who have a Greater Number of Radio Listening Options and
more Freedom of Choice across the AM and FM Radio Bands.

Most of your Radio Listeners would 'Fit" into Groups # 1 or # 2.

d"Eduado - Your's is a Limited Answer to a Question
with Mush Broader Aspects. ~ RHF

Most Regular AM/FM Radio Listeners Can Be Grouped Into :

Group # 1 - The Single (1) Radio Station Listeners :
The Reality is that a very large number of Radio Listeners
are Single (1) Station Listeners. Their Radio is Tuned to
One 'Local' Radio Station and that's that.
=PS= You will often see a new or old style Manual Tune
Radio be used by them in some Room in their Home.
So -if- "That" Radio Station 'sounds-ok' they could careless
about what the rest of the Radio Band sounds like.
? Why Is the Tivoli Audio Model One Manual Tuning* ?

* Marketing Research shows . . . .

Group # 2 - The Few (3~4) Radio Station Listeners :
This to is a very large Group of Radio Listeners and they
will usually have a newer AM/FM Radio with Five (5)
Presets per Band. Normally They Listen to One to
Two of those 'Local' Radio Stations on each of the
AM and FM Radio Bands.
? Why Does the CCRadio Only Have 5-Presets* ?

* Marketing Research shows . . . .
=PS= Why Do Most Automobile AM/FM Radios
Have About 5~6 Push-Buttons** {PreSets}

** Once Again Marketing Research shows . . . .

Time Out - Just for the Fun of It !

Group # 3 - The Hourly {Minute-by-Minute} Radio Listener
This to is not as large a Group of Radio Listeners and
they are always changing the Radio Station that they are
Listening to; and seeking out something interesting to
hear. For them Seventy Plus (70+) Radio Station PreSets
{Memories} are not enought.
+ They Want More.
+ They Want Their Radios To Auto-Scan.
+ They Want Their Radios Look Complex.
+ They Want AM & FM Plus More . . .
+ They Want To Hear Distant (DX) Radio Stations.
=PS= They Want Shortwave + CW + SSB and Even More . . .
