So upgrade to a digital receiver. That's what I'm gonna do.

Besides, HD AM may never take off, for many reasons. Some are obvious
and
some are more subtle. But HD FM is a great idea.

First off I do not consider buying an HD radio an "upgrade". I consider
it paying more money for another radio that gets what I have now with
analog.

Except that it gets channels you can't get with analog only.

Second HD radio trashes my analog reception.

So upgrade to digital.

Third is the reason
you gave, which is it will fail and I will end up with a worthless HD
radio.

I said HD AM *may* fail. FM HD is a definite improvement, and will likely
succeed. Hell, it's already succeeding.

Look, I realize I am probably wasting my time here. Most of the "regulars"
here seem like typical old farts who simply resist change. The fact is, no
one cares if it "trashes YOUR analog reception". So few people are
listening to analog radio these days that the losses are acceptable IF
enough new gains are made by going digital. As with most things these
days, you can either upgrade or be left behind, wondering where everyone
went.
