Well, I suppose there's no COMMERCIAL service of any kind unless
there's profit made. Come to think of it, this is precisely the lesson
AM HD broadcasters are about to learn....the hard way.

Since there are literally only a handful of non-commercial AMs, this
discussion has to be about commercial radio.

This is incorrect. The fact that there are currently only a handful of
non-commercial AMs does not entail that there could not be a greater
number of non-commercial AMs. To discuss not only what AM is but the
ways in which it could change in the future is perfectly legitimate.
This is precisely the problem with you and the other proponents of AM
HD: instead of looking to the future, you instead look to the past.


By the way, while you were posting here, more of your listeners
expired. Guess the colloidal silver didn't reach 'em in time.

"My" listeners have a median age of about 33. None of them are expiring
from
old age.

You obviously don't understand the meaning of "median".


Half are under the median, half are over. Practically none are over 55.

Hmmmmm... 55... isn't that the approximate age you became the Chifako,
'Eduardo'?

You are a tool and a robot. I am in your so-called ''metro survey
area'' but I am way out of the coverage area of all but 2 local
stations at night, therefore I am part of the half of the population
that lives outside the suburbs.

Half the population lives in the top 50 Arbitron metros. Just the top 50.
And 82% live in the 300 rated markets.

I believe that you have mentioned living in or about Canyon Country, CA. You
can not get many stations because of terrain obstructions, but you certainly
have Internet and other options.

How many people watch TV at night? How many don't? How many of those
that don't listen to the radio? How many of those listen to AM radio?

Of those who are not at work or sleeping in 6 PM to Midnight, virtually all
watch TV. On the other hand, less than 7% are listening to radio at night,
and less than 1.3% are listening to AM.

Until last night, the flamethrowers ruled the Bohemian airwaves, for
people who aren't slaves to the idiot box.

Bohemia is in Europe, where some nations have decided to simply eliminate
AM.

Even if that is true, it in no way entails that none of them expired
while you were making your last post. You may understand the
dictionary definition of "median" (we know how fond you are of your
dictionaries), but you've obviously not mastered the logic of the
term.

He's certainly not mastered the logic of Mexican being a nationality rather than a race.

In other words, they are dullards.

1.3% is 4 million people. Really smart people who enjoy the simple
pleasure of listening to good radio.

I suppose someone could have died while making the post, but if we are going
to count car accidents and heart attacks, then any medium, be it the
Internet, WiMax, Radio, TV or talking books could have lost a few users in
that time span. Statistically, such occurrences are irrelevant, particularly
if you are looking at the audience of 75 radio stations, and a weekly
audience approaching 12 million.

The median age, that point where half our listeners are younger and half are
older (which is all a median point indicates) is about 33 years of age. The
bulk are in 18 to 49, with very few, as a percentage, younger or older.
Consequently, very few would have died either of old age or, for that
matter, crib death.

And you do not understand that many words have either various meanings or
shades of meaning. In fact, usage defines meaning.... "human race" is
technically incorrect... humans are a species, but contemporary usage has
made this acceptable.
