As an employee of one of several AM station owners, including CCU and

Northern Mexico, I beg to differ. We care a lot, and have joined in
legal action to protect our signal.

There is also some evidence that IBOC interference can affect home
metro groundwave coverage of adjacent channel stations.

Between the cubans and the mexicans, I can't get WLS reliably here in
Charlotte at night. I also have trouble with a lot of the locals. (I don't
know if they are flea power at night or what, but there is almost nothing on
the band (other than WBT) that seems to come in clearly at night.

sigh

I dread seeing what IBOC will do to the local scene.. will get even worse.
