Took a trip to the local Best Buy to check on the status of HD radiosales. �Same three units still there - imagine that. �This stuff is

selling Ginsu knives or something like that. �OK, maybe it was laundry
detergent.


In making the announcement, Bernie Sapienza,iBiquity'sVice President
of Retail Business Development, said, "We are happy to bring JR on
board at this important time, when the growth in HD Radio products at
retail is increasing. We will rely on him to work with our retail and
manufacturing partners to build HD Radio technology's presence at
retail."


SeemsiBiquitymight want to start with a little honesty about their
current state ofsales, or lack of. � The dudes atiBiquityare spin-
masters. �At least Ginsu knives work.


AlsoreadthatiBiquitywill not support any further development of AM
HD beyond the current state. �That should send a shiver to those boys
currently transmitting AM HD.


TheseiBiquitydudes are techno-wizards. �Even a school boy with a
rudimentary understanding of amplitude modulation schemes knows there
is no way to transition from an analog signal to a digital one without
taking huge chunks of bandwidth. Unless you want if to sound like a
cell phone.


Welcome aboard the Titanic JR.

"Hey, we are all entitled to our opinions. Â*I would appreciate your
not having attacked me in your post on the google finance site.
Perhaps you would be kind enough to remove it if that is at all
possible. If I knew you or you knew me, Â*or perhaps I had a done
something that deserved such a comment, that would be one thing. Â*I am
sure you have your opinions on IBOC, and are entitled to those. Â*You
are not entitled to an opinion of me when you do not know me."

I referred to Stocks as a loser on iNiquity's Google Finance site,
becauseMyerEmcowas a loser that went out of business. Yea, a real
nice guy that should be considered a criminal, along with the rest of
iNiquity's employees, for this monopoly to take over our airways
through adjacent-channel interference! Â*Maybe, he doen't realize that
since he has been in the news, he is considered a public figure, and
is legally open to criticism.


Funny- no one told be me that we had gone out of business. Â*Check your
facts, Myer-Emco is very much in business, and has been for 52 years.
Rationalizing a personal attack of someone you do not know, simply
because they are in the news, is pretty weak ground. Â*I am not sure
what your beef with J.R. is, but I would certainly vouch for his
credibility and capabilities.

How about you signing your name to your attack as well? Your comments
are in the public domain, are they not?- Hide quoted text -

MyerEmco got bought out - don't have a beef with him, except all
iBiquity employees should be held responsible for supporting the
highjacking of our airways. Let's see, what happens when Congress
finishes its investigation of the FCC - hopefully, this scam called HD
Radio will be brought to the publics' attention and those responsible
are prosecuted.- Hide quoted text -

Look at the pathetic number of hits on your website - in your case,
being out-of-business, and being bought-out, might as well be one-in-
the-same:
