Not interested - buying an HD Radio, is just supporting the HD Radio
Cartel, which will destroy the broadcast bands with IBOC's
adjacent-channel interference hash ! HD Radio will die, from lack of
consumer interest, anyway. Good going !

I experience no adjacent channel interference, even with strong HD

A blip-on-the-screen, in terms of consumer interest - IBOC supporters,
keep touting how many stations are broadcasting in HD, although 1200,
out of 13500, is a small percentage (and, msot are owned by Clear
Channel, part of the HD Radio Cartel). There is one problem, however -
no one is listening !

This is a fallacy. IBOC DOES generate adjacent channel (and second
adjacent
channel, for that matter) interference. You may be thinking that it
doesn't
RECEIVE adjacent channel, but I'm sure that even under some conditions,
that
could also be the case, but it definately CAUSES interference to adjacent
and second adjacent analog signals, as has been demonstated in the field
many times now.

HD radio is so good that I don't want to listen to even the good
analogue stations anymore. I would compare it to the difference
between TV with rabbit ears and a cable TV signal.

You don't need an HDTV to pick up HDTV from whichever local tv stations
in your area which are broadcasting in HD.You can pick them up over the
air with a regular tv antenna.

You are just a shill for HD Radio/IBOC - IBOC causes adjacent-channel
interference and has only 60% the coverage of analog. HD Radio/IBOC
will fail, from on-going lack of consumer interest. Senator Sununu
just introduced an amandment to his bill, that already has passed, to
keep the FCC from mandating particular standards/produsts. BYE, bye HD

For AM IBOC (HD) radio there is significant interference to adjacent
channels. If a station on 820 kHz is broadcasting IBOC, stations on 810 and
830 kHz will be difficult to hear due to the digital noise. For those
interested in DXing, this is an issue.

The digital method used for shortwave is DRM and uses less bandwidth.

Is it true that you can not understand a DRM transmission with an
analog radio, where with IBOC you still have an analog component to
listen to ?

Recently, I was listening to an analog radio and found myself longing
for the digital signals of the same stations and also wondering what
was playing on the HD2 stations. However, I haven't noticed any
interference on either AM or FM. My big complaint is that at night,
some of the HD stations seem to get weaker and I can't receive them
anymore.

Which HD radio did you buy, and how is it working out for you? The
performance of HD radios is partially dependant on where you live. Some
large cities with many
100,000 watt FM stations will challenge an HD receiver. I listened to
the Boston Accouctics
Receptor at one of my local Radio Shack stores and they didn't even
have a good antenna hooked up to the unit, hence reception on all
FM channels was
compromised. Radio Shack is notorious for having no knowledge of
reception hence
making themselves look bad. Also they had no list of which stations
were HD or which had HD-2 or HD-3. They are sorely lacking in educated
sales people, and even the managers were ignorant. Good luck with your
HD experience. I found the Radio
Shack HD receiver had more information in their display than did the
Boston Accoustics Receptor. Dave N........

I've been using the Sangean HD-1 the sound quality is good,on fm and
am.I live in columbus ohio area ,we have a few hd radio station most of
them are on fm,only 2 for am. Now on my analog radio 1230am at night
drifts, it low power station,but on Sangean it comes in great . of
course,i notice the station in hd during the day,at night it's not. the
only complaint i have is there a switch for news & music- is placed on
the rear of the radio,it's hard to get to,it should on the front. also
the internal clock loses time,all the time.the sound quality sounds
great. Robert
