The fact is that Bonneville is slowly moving KSL to FM anyway.


Let's see, how much interest that USA Today article this week on HD
Radio generated (select range of 3M and smoothness of -1):

http://www.alexaholic.com/hdradio.com

WOW - a whopping 20 million hits on hdradio.com, but wait, look how
the graph is falling ! There is zero sustained interest in HD Radio !
Loser !


I don't think I have ever visited the site. Why would I? why would anyone?
The real issue is the information campaign of the HD Alliance and others to
promote HD receiver sales-.

There are two separate issues here... AM and HD.

AM is fading away. It is used by older folks, mostly, and there are only
largely successful stations in one format area: talk. Talk is now moving to
FM, and when the transition is over, there will be no mass appeal format on
AM and no younger listeners.

HD improves FM audio, adds a second program channel, and vastly improves AM
Audio. Nearly every FM can benefit. Only a few AMs can, as only a few have
decent signals.

That HD sure improves the QRM as well.

If very few people are listening to AM, and even less to AMs outside their
local market area or community, why would this matter?

No, they are just simulcasting - AM is going to stay.


... for the moment.

The same company started simulcasting KTAR (AM) on FM in Phoenix, and 6
months later, the news / talk format was only on FM.

(That is what "slowly moving" means... a lengthy transition to get people
used to the idea of finding the station on FM, not AM).


Will never happen - KSL would lose too many listeners.

AM radio used to work real well, until the Reagan FCC screwed it up.


The Reagan FCC did not do much of anything to AM. What did AM in was FM...
anyone under 45 has grown up in the era where more listening went to FM than
AM (currently 80% or more) and they are not used to AM, especially for
music. That is why nearly nobody under 45 uses AM... it sounds bad, is noisy
and unpleasant compared to FM, iPods, webcasts, CDs, etc.


There are a number of years, still left on AM - news/talk/sports is
ranked #1 on AM.

Pretty impressive comments about HD Radio - everyone knows it is a
****ing joke ! *;-)


6 stupid comments on a message board are not reality.


There are 19 - shows how little people care about HD Radio !
