I had a DJ friend at an AOR station in Nashville back in the 70s when it
tried Dolby tell me that only the deep fringe listeners could benefit
from that and besides not being in the SMSA most of those hicks didn't
have the gear for it.


What is an SMSA? Arbitron only has TSA and MSA.


Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area
I think that's what he said it was referred to back in the 70s
had to do with the intended area of the station's coverage


Makes sense... that was the Census definition, although generally Arbitron
MSA's are not exactly the same as the census MSA or CMSA of today.
