Robert Struble has opened up a new Web Column to debate HD radio but
in an email conversation with him he refuses to open up the debate
comments to the public.


He continues to distort the facts concerning the lack of success of
Hybrid Digital and in no way wants to open up a public discourse on
the subject. I suggest anyone with interest read his message at
www.ibiquity.com/about_us/message


He just got another infusion of $40,000,000 of your dollars from the
Federal Government for his failed technology.


According to Bob Struble, receiver manufacturers didn't think there were any
HD radio stations broadcasting a couple of years ago and there were no FM
radio recievers available in 1963.


Well, that's it. Progress is held back by receiver manufacturers who won't
sell fancy new radios!!


Bob Struble is such a hoot.

Yea, his blog is nothing but lies. I have been getting threats from
one of his co-horts on Orbitcast about my blog, with threats of
lawsuits, for posting just references to newspaper articles and other
peoples' blogs. I never give personal opinions, or allow comments, or
post copyright material. These scammers are running scared - I've
gotten visitors from the DOJ, US Courts, Congressional Quarterly, FCC,
GAO, GSA, US House of Reps., etc... I have a feeling that the
investigation into the HD Radio farce, with NPR bilking Congress out
of tens-of-millions, is on the horizon. Struble tries to compare
today's media lanscape with iPods, iPhones, Internet, etc., to that of
the 1970's.



Based on my conversation with him, Booble Struble is running scared
and knows his system is failing to make any significant inroads in the
U.S. He makes strange analogies to early FM, etc. which make little
sense. He is under some delusion that he is a radio pioneer like
Frank Conrad, Edwin Armstrong, etc. I think he sees visions

He's basically in a denial mode and will probably have to be carried
off in a straight jacket at some point. Investor pressure is
becoming too hard for him to cope with. If any of you have any balls
you'll join in with his one-sided debate at www.ibiquity.com/about_us/message
and help push him over the edge.
