Over 80% of listening is in the 70 dbu, and the rest in the 64 to 69 dbu contour. The HD signal at least matches the 64 dbu useful and used contour. On AM, the HD signal is often listenable beyond the "used and useful" contour of the analog signal. HD/IBOC causes adjacent-channel interference and has only 60% the coverage of analog. There is a difference between arbitrary signal contours and a usable signal. The FM HD coverage is about the same as the usable, useful FM analog signal, and in noisy markets, the AM HD in some cases extends beyond the usable analog contour, especially at night if the protected contour is a high value. |

... Sacrificing CHOICE and creating QRM. Such a deal! "The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few" - Spock, "Wrath of Kahn" The couple thousand people in the US who actually listen to AM DX don't really count, as far as the radio stations themselves are concerned. Personally, I'd rather have clear local reception 24/7 than be able to catch WLW from Cincinnati every now and then. Besides, I can listen WLW any time I want on the net. Yes, this sucks in a way. I have dozens of analog radios, from 1935 tube antiques (including an E. H. Scott Allwave 23 in a Tasman cabinet that I have had since about 1970) up through 1970s Grundig Satellit 2100, Panasonic RF-2200, a Drake R8, and a Grundig S-800, and loads of small portables and antique 50s/60s transistor sets. Potentially, all of these could be made useless on AM. However, I really don't think HD AM will take over. Hell, we are getting a brand new, 50,000 watt sports/talk AM station here in 3 weeks! 1010 on the dial for you AM DXers! But if the choice is no free local radio because everything has moved to subscription satellite radio (because it's digital), then I vote for local, free, digital, HD radio. And I will vote with my dollars. Mike |
