Default Ibiquity's "Gag Order" on engineers

I now see HD as perhaps the _only_ hope for AM radio to survive.


Wow... even more Frackeltonian Thinking!


OK, genius... how do you suggest that AM radio stations reverse the
downtrend in total listening and the fact that only people over 50 use them,
for the most part? I'm sure you have a plan, or you would not so brashly
dismiss people actually in the business who are working to preserve the
viability of AM.

Yeah, by messing up the band with failed technology.

Now that is Frackeltonian Thinking!

The band is already "messed up" by the FCC licensing too many stations that
have never been viable. You do know, I hope, that during the entire period
that data was available, from the mid-50's to the mid-90's, half of all US
radio stations did not make money?

Today, there are few AMs that can survive for long... mostly the big high
power or non-directional metro stations, or rural AMs in underserved
communities.

Making jokes about "failed" technologies that are, in fact, at the very
beginning of their development helps in no conceivable way.

Well, it is failed technology no matter how much you are paid to hype it.

Please, run along, and practice your toe tapping code.

Whose joking? Even the horse and buggy is a new technology of you
compare it to, say, the lever and fulcrum.

But it doesn't hurt in any conceivable way either, does it? Well,
except for people, like you, who are out to make money off of HD.

I think it could actually be a great thing if AM stations die. Think
how fascinating it will be to see what springs up in their place on
the MW band. Pirates, perhaps? New utilities? The possibilities are
endless.

Please don't stand in the way of this Golden Age.

Please stop living in the past.

Please stop trying to block progress.

And please keep your feet to yourself in the men's room stalls.

And with a total revenue share of 100 in any market, that isn't going
to change. Consolidation can move that red line a few positions
deeper, but all the technology in the world, all the cost cutting in the
world, will not change the fact that there is only a 100 revenue share
in any market, and not all stations can survive.
