"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."

My new Yamaha 3900 A/V receiver sounds fantastic on FM HD radio
stations.
NO INTERFERENCE WHATSOEVER!

But my Yamaha also has Internet Radio which is competing with analog
AM and analog FM for my ears.
I'm affraid that analog is loosing out.
