They don't allow HD on AM after sunset.. That should help

They will, eventually. The real issue is that nearly nobody listens to AM at
night, anyway.

The FCC will never allow IBOC at night - there are too many
interference problems, and IBOC will fail anyway.

HELL!!! Can't we talk radio instead of flaming??!

What new SW listener, or possible listener, think about the hobby?

dxAss is not a hobbyist. He is simply a garden variety bigot and
racist
who
uses the fact he owns an R8 as an excuse to stalk canadians and others
he
considers undesirable (99.99999999999999% of Humanity) so he can make
some
of the dumbest flames known to Usenet.

**** you, cocksucker (and fake Hispanic) !

Ah, I so admire a person with a strong command of language.

Ah, and I admire fake hispanics that use their name to get positions at
Univision, when they are only ****ing high-school dropouts !

The Lehman Brothers ratings scorecard for 2006 shows Univsion the #1 group
in the US based on ratings performance. There must be a reason I get paid
other than my baptismal name... and ratings must be that reason.

Ratings mean nothing - you changed your name from Gleason to Eduardo to
get your cushy job at Univision - amazing they pay you to post all day
long - troll.

MW DXing down the tube? NOPE!
 

Don't listen to this piece-of-****.

IBOC is currently transmitted at 1/100th (one/one hundredth) of the power of
the main analog carrier.
At that 1/100th power level it is covering 60% of the analog carrier -
INCREDIBLE!!!!

IBOC DXing is rather fun. A real kick picking up an AM station
broadcasting
IBOC at a small fraction of power relative to the analog main carrier in
digital sound. Having a DX station's call-sign displayed for instant
station verification is pure bliss.

So far my best IBOC dx catch with "instant verification" was about 500
miles
via grayline one morning. Keep in mind that until the analog broadcast
signal is turned off, the IBOC signal is transmitted at a small fraction
of
the power that the main analog signal is broadcast. So any IBOC DX
catch
made right now is indeed a remarkable feat. The night that AM stations
broadcast in 100% IBOC only with full legal power will really be fun.

There are a few AM IBOC stations that broadcast about an hour or so
before
and after their local sunrise/sunset.

IBOC/digital DXing is no different than DXing other digital modes like
CW,
RTTY, HDTV, etc... All the whiners are just concerned that they will
have
to retire their analog R8 receivers along with their analog TV's to the
museum. Hopefully, the IBOC decoder software will be made available in
the
future for free and in the public domain. That would make IBOC
available
for decoding on any receiver using a computer. Imagine the
possibilities
with a software defined radio such as the SDR-1000.

Don't listen to this piece-of-**** ! HD Radio/IBOC has only 60% the
coverage of analog and causes adjacent-channel interference. To learn

Yeah, that baptismal name that you made up c.2000!

That would make me about 5, then.

Jeeze, are you ignorant. "Eduardo" is my second given name, just as "Bob" is
"Billy Bob's" second given name. My paternal last name is and always was
"Gleason" and my maternal surname is "Frackelton" (both being Irish).

In commercial radio in major markets, ratings are everything. They establish
pricing, and determine total revenue potential.

Xmas Present for DXass: Some Overlooked People to Hate
 

DxAss, Alleged collich graduate, and holder of the prized "Ignorant
and proud of it award" has vented his spleen ( he laughed his ass off
long ago) against Canadians, Mexicans, and others who are different
than him (shudder). He has missed one group: the residents of St.
Pierre and Michelon, a French province in the Gulf of St. Lawrence. The
French are good at insults and would keep DxEcch out of our hair at
least until he has used up his four stock phrases (yawn) and returned
to the CB band. Get a CB radio, Boy.
