WSCR 670 Chicago switched on IBOC at 5:34 am this morning, covering
WFAN 660 NYC lsb listening in Central Ohio. What's going on?

Is there nighttime IBOC now?

No, no night HD, but stations, including daytimers, can conduct testing
in
the overnight hours. So it could be either a test or a mistake.

Yes, IBOC is a mistake, no doubt about it.

Mistake my ass! It's the answer to the Beaner-Blaster AM stations taking
over the AM band. AM IBOC sounds a LOT better than analog AM ever has or
will.
I for one am sick and tired of hearing "OOOMPA" music and dreaded mariachi
crap at stoplights, emanating from a beat up Ford aerostar van....
The Beaners wont buy HD radios. IBOC can turn a burrito-blaster back into a
good AM station and a moneymaker in the longrun.

Not only is IBOC making headway, but so is DRM.....getting big and working
well in Europe.
