Default Observations/questions about HD Radio

First off, I should have thanked Scott for his answer - that was rude
of me; you helped shed some light on parts of my query; thank you!

Now, I have noticed that some stations have corrected their displays
since my initial posting - to the engineers, I also say thank you!


Here's what the dial looks like now; (all tests done on a Sangean
HDT-1 tuner)

Thanks to the stations that got it right - and what the hell is up
with the ones that haven't? It's pretty bad that the bible-thumper
station, KTIS, can figure it out, even while being scientifically
challenged as they are... simply amazing.
