Must be an awful slow death, cause there's an AM station every 10kc at
night and although there are gaps, plenty of stations during the day.
He's been pushing this "AM is dying" agenda when it's just not true.
Have a look at this:
http://www.amlogbook.com/freq.htm
This is a database of all the currently licensed AM stations in the US and
Canada. Note that the ones with a # are silent. What is the percentage of
silent? Maybe 5%? And some of them have been silent for years.
He's using this agenda to promote his "we need IBOC to save AM radio"
agenda, when there is no reason to save anything. If anything kills AM, it
will either be finances, or the coming revolution of Internet radio fed
into almost anything you can imagine. IBOC will die along with it, and
that's only a few years away.
