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

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

What KSL listeners had to say about HD Radio ! The fact is that Bonneville is slowly moving KSL to FM anyway. No, they are just simulcasting - AM is going to stay. 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 ! |
