Default Ibiquity IBOC - no hd radio upgrade needed!

I love it - In my area several stations that were transmitting
ibiquity digital junk have turned it off but they continue to have
spots proclaiming “now in crystal clear HD”. Thus leading consumers
to believe that they are hearing their radio station in “crystal clear
HD” – with no hd radio upgrade needed!

Talk about confusion! Good way to promote a product – let them think
they already have it! Struble you’re a genius.

Oh yea – hd radio is exciting! No need to buy one (if they were even
available) because you already have one!


KFI, always Johnny-on-the-spot, just fired their IBOC up. Resulting in
an annoying wubba-wubba sound whenever one of their sidebands fades a
little (which is several times a minute).
