Questionable by whom? You? Who are you? If you are going to accuse
someone with a generally good reputation of being incompetent or evil,
you really do need to provide specifics.

If
there is IBOC interference to a protected signal then a complaint needs
to be filed with the FCC. I searched the FCC database of complaints and
couldn't find any complaint about this for KKDV. The procedure for
filing complaints can be found at
"http://www.fcc.gov/eb/broadcast/interference.html".

I'm well aware of the street address for filing general interference
complaints.

Something you would know if you actually worked in broadcasting:

Station owners in a market do not casually file interference complaints
against their fellow broadcasters. It just isn't done except in rare
instances. It is a last resort which occurs only after the interfering
station has exhibited absolutely no willingness to cooperate or
participate in a solution, and even then the commission turns around and
tells the parties to make yet another attempt at reconciliation.

Clear Channel has bent over backwards to assist us and others in
tracking down and quantifying interference and other situations. We have
a magnificent relationship with the local people here. In any given
market, cooperation is the name of the game.

No useful purpose would be served at this time by putting this on record
with the FCC as a complaint against a fellow broadcaster who is
complying with current guidelines. There are other FCC portals which are
far more effective for registering procedural complaints, particularly
those involving the formal complaint process through counsel. You WILL
find those complaints on file, if you know where to look and what to
look for.

Your assertion has been that interference within protected contours was
not occurring. I have evidence that it does in at least three cases. As
has been pointed out, the FCC's inaction and lack of acknowledgement
that such interference exists does not mean that it isn't happening.
You're welcome to take calibrated receivers and spectrum analyzer out
into the field and prove me wrong. As I recall, I have offered to take
anyone out into the field and demonstrate the situation, live and in
person.

When do you want to go?
