Default Night time AM IBOC - not a question of "If," it's a question of "When."

"A recent Arbitron/Edison Media Research study found that more than
one-third of Americans are interested in HD Radio, but nearly half said they
would only purchase an HD Radio if it cost $100 or less."

http://www.hdradio.com

RW: What are your thoughts about whether or how AM should go digital at
night?

Mathews: I think there are problematic issues. The long and short of it is a
lot of AM stations, just like FMs, have been getting reception in areas
where they aren't really technically protected. . But, at some point . they'
re going to have to give up what they've been sort of getting for free all
this time anyway, that sort of non-protected listening area. .

[TRANLATION (in the voice of Don La Fontaine): AM IBOC DXing IS FOR REAL!]

RW: Because AM has to go digital at night. .

Mathews: It's one of those things where everybody is saying, "It can't
happen."
And I've said this from the beginning on HD, none of this is a question of
"If," it's a question of "When."

RW: Do your listeners notice when you go digital?

Mathews: They have no concept unless they have an HD Radio.

"Dead Technology Walking"

"Deader than Microsoft's new iPod competitor Zune this holiday gift
buying season will be HD radio. Expensive. It has no rhyme nor reason
to anyone who doesn't own or operate a radio station. It's remarkable
to me that any sane radio executive can believe that HD radio will
give the industry the rebirth it needs to satisfy its prime audience
-- Wall Street investors -- I mean, listeners."

http://insidemusicmedia.blogspot.com...y-walking.html

"In-Stat: Digital Radio Set to Take Off"

"In 2006, 73 percent of respondents to an In-Stat U.S. consumer survey
were aware of HD Radio on some level."

http://beradio.com/eyeoniboc/instat-digital-radio-set/

"Sirius, XM, and HD: Consumer interest reality check" (Alexaholic)

"While interest in satellite radio is diminishing, interest in HD
shows no signs of a pulse."

http://www.hear2.com/2007/02/sirius_....html#comments

This just confirms, the lack of interest for HD Radio, on Google
Trends:

http://www.google.com/trends?q=%22hd... =all&date=all

"Rethinking AM's Future"

"Only 175 or so AM stations have even licensed AM-HD. For a number of
reasons, quite a few have tried it and taken it off the air, or so the
anecdotal evidence suggests. Ibiquity no longer reports in its public
summaries whether a station is on the air."

http://www.rwonline.com/pages/s.0044/t.55

For now, HD Radio/IBOC is dead - authorization for nighttime AM will
never happen.

"HD Radio Perceptual Study - Awareness & Interest
2007 Units Sold Estimates Reduced"

"Based on the results of this study and analysis performed by Bridge
Ratings, we have reduced our original projections for full year 2007
HD radio sales from 2.1 million total HD radio units sold to 1.5
million. Our models anticipate HD Radio market penetration to grow
slowly through 2010 when we optimistically project 12 million sold
(U.S.)."

http://www.bridgeratings.com/press_1.17.07.HDPercep.htm

Since, only a few tens-of-thousands of HD radios have been sold, even
Bridge Ratings still over-projects the number of HD radios sold, by a
long-shot. No doubt, due to lousy reception and poor/lack of HD
channel programming, many have been returned. See, you and David
Eduardo are losers !

I have been researching/posting on this subject for a year, and have a
zillion links set up, and know exactly how and where to find
information, to counter little punks like you and David Edurado ! :-)

"Digital radio in Canada"

http://americanbandscan.blogspot.com...in-canada.html

And, since I am in Maryland, worst-case-scenario, I can AM DX to
Canada, because digital radio has failed to gain consumer interest, as
in the US, but Canada will not put up with interference. HD/IBOC will
eventually go the way of the failed AM Stereo of the 1980s - no one
cares about terrestrial radio, because it is just a convenience, not
entertainment such as, iPods/MP3s, gaming-systems, cell phones, the
Internet, etc...
