"FCC to Consider Raising FM-HD Power Levels"


"Why would radio stations take the risk of degrading the quality of
their existing analog service in order to pimp a flawed technology
which nobody's listening to? It's almost as if the strategy of the HD
Radio Alliance is to degrade analog radio service in order to force
digital adoption - kind of a variant on the 'we had to destroy the
village to save it' rationale."


Stop the propaganda lies!

Digital HD Radio doesn't degrade FM analog. �FM digital HD Radio is
superior to analog FM in every way.

I suppose you're still advocating for the superiority of vinyl 33-1/2
rpm records and the horse and buggy? �What's the matter? �Does this
hit your buggy-whip factory revenue? bwaHAHAHAHAHA!!!!


"HD Interference: Not Just For AM Anymore"

"Radio World Engineering Extra dropped a bomb this month with a very
provocative cover story: 'What Are We Doing to Ourselves, Exactly?'
Written by Doug Vernier, the man who authored the technical
specifications for an ongoing Corporation for Public Broadcasting-
sponsored HD Radio interference analysis, the report is the first of
its kind to document interference between FM-HD stations around the
country. Using anecdotal reportage, some sophisticated contour-
mapping, and presumably 'early data' from the CPB study, Vernier's
article conclusively proves how stations running in hybrid HD/analog
mode can (and do) interfere somewhat significantly with not only
themselves, but their neighbors on the FM dial."
