HD Radio - no one cares
"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. Making AM-HD work well as a long-term investment is seen as an expensive and risky challenge for most stations and their owners. With the bulk of successful AMs airing news, talk and sports, the improved fidelity advantage of HD and stereo seem only marginally attractive. There is the significant downside of potential new interference to some of their own AM analog listeners as well as listeners of adjacent-channel stations. And of course we still have no nighttime authority for AM-HD." http://www.rwonline.com/pages/s.0044/t.557.html Existing RDS has the same texting functions, as HD/IBOC. For now, HD Radio/IBOC is dead. |

HD Radio - no one cares
I am top posting as I don't think anyone has time for your constant
regurgitation of old quotes from discredited wannabe pundits. Name me the viable AM stations in the top 20 US markets. "Viable" in radio means "able to cover the entire radio metro day and night with a usable signal." Hell, for starters, name me the viable AM stations in Washington, DC. Just the top 10 markets have only 32 to 35 viable AMs in total. The next ten markets have even less... maybe between 16 and 18 (per BIA). After that, the average market has one to two viable AMs per market. wrote in message s.com... "In-Stat: Digital Radio Set to Take Off" Bla, bla, bla, snip snip snip. |

many are not even in the US. wrote in message ps.com...

Even your fellow IBOC shills know AM-HD is dead - From Mike Walker avsforum today: "rwagoner we probably won't get to know. The AM System ain't exactly setting the world on fire because you can't use it at night, and it causes massive adjacent channel interference. Add to that the fact that it reduced audio quality for 100 percent of the CURRENT AM audience, and why would we even consider this turkey? As for turning off analog, why EXACTLY would you do that, when it's analog AM, the oldest and most robust of mass electronic media, that EVERYONE can receive, and that can be relied upon to be ON THE AIR, and offering LIFE SAVING INFORMATION after a disaster? Do we really want to turn off analog, and leave the poor, aged, and infirm who can't afford the latest digital doo-dads, or maybe don't even know about them, with no source of emergency information????? There is no higher calling (in radio) than providing emergency information...to EVERYONE!" http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showt...0ae& t=799117 AM-HD is dead - WLW AM is ranked #1 ! |
