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

from MyerEmco. �Seems I've seen that guy on TV a few years back
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,
because MyerEmco was 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.


J. R. Stocks must be second rate if he wants to spar with people on
Goggle Newsgroups, etc. Â*Pretty low class, but than again typical for
a second rate company with a second rate product like iBiquiity HD.
Especially with their questionable ethics. They have first-rate
spinmasters though. Â* Just my opinion on all this though.

Also Interesting that Â* feels the need to sound so
threatening. Â*Who is that fellow anyway?

J. R., you’ve got your hands full convincing retail and manufacturing
partners to make and sell a blatantly defective product. Â*I think you
should return to Ginsu knives and laundry detergent myself. Â*But then
again just my opinion.

Let me know if I can help you with your new venture J. R. Â*I’m always
available
