"The reason the big boys in the big markets are so pro-IBOC is because
they like the hash as it wipes out distant signals getting into their

station.

There were no first adjacent AMs making the ratings in any of the "big
markets" to begin with. So what is to gain by stopping something that is not
occurring?


Right - WLW is adjacent to WOR and is ranked #1.
