"HD Radio spinners claim a breakthrough year: Pulling a fast one"


Why such hatred for new technology?


I hate the way it sounds. I hate the way it trashes adjacent stations. I
hate old technology that is misapplied.

Should we all go back to spark gap morse code on the broadcast bands?


Feel free.

Why are you stuck to an almost 100 year old technology?


It works.

Granted, radio sucks.. but it is the homogenized blah content that is
the core of that suckiness, not the technology.


No it doesn't. You need to find another news group.

No originality, no uniqueness. What the h*ll happened to local content?


It's on the local stations fruit loop.

Fix the bandwidth waste of satellite fed national feeds of non stop
talking heads with nothing between their ears and short playlists of
hits of the last 30 years of the 20th century and the technology will
be worth it.


That's not a solution for the broadcast bands.

Otherwise please don't act like an old wash woman with a wet pair of
drawers on.


Stop projecting.

If you don't like what you hear, set the power switch to off.


If you don't like the topic of the news group then go post elsewhere.
