It's part of the IBOC signal. If you have selectable single sideband
listen to any HD AM station, one sideband only; you'll hear it quite
clearly. It's a warbling signal at approx. 400 Hz.

David - My Point Is - I Am Hearing This With An "HD" Radio :

THIS IS BAD NEWS FOR "HD" AM/MW RADIO LISTENERS !

I am hearing more and more of what we use to call
Automotive Engine {Ingition} Noise {at very High RPM}
with the Radi-Osophy HD-100 Radio.

THIS IS BAD NEWS FOR "HD" AM/MW RADIO BROADCASTERS !

When I first got this "HD" Radio this Noise was not as
noticeable -but- now it is the 'preponderant' sound across
the AM/MW Band except when there is a Clean and Clear
Analog AM/MW Radio Station to listen to on any given
Frequency.

-NOTE- This HD Radio "Noise" Background is so strong
that IMHO most 2nd and 3rd Generation "HD" Radios
should have a Squelch Knob to quiet-out this Noise so
that a Radio Listener only has to hear those 'local'
AM/MW Radio Stations with a Clean and Clear Signal :
Be it Analog or Digital.

Yes, I didn't understand you were using an IBOC radio. I have no
experience with one, other than trying to play with one at Fry's and
not getting it to work.

I notice that some of the IBOC hash does reach the analog channel,
even using a very selective filter. That is, the noise floor of the
analog signal is raised a bit. This is noticeable on very clean AM
signals.- Hide quoted text -

M...Sushi,

The Radi-Osophy HD-100 Radio was functioning in the
Analogy Mode. Had a GE Superadio III sitting next to
it and basically heard the same thing on it.

It just may be that I am at the 'right distance' from the
Radio Station's Transmitter where It's Analog and Digital
Signals 'Interact' and cause the sound effect heard.

-Or- More likely it is the Analog Signal of One Radio
Station being Trashed by the Digital Side Band of an
Adjacent Channel's Radio Station. Again being at the
'right-distance' to where the two Signals 'Interact' and
cause the sound effect heard.

AM/MW "HD" Radio is 'by-design' Engineered to Interfer
with the two Adjacent AM/MW Radio Channels at 10 kHz.http://electronicdesign.com/Files/29.../Figure_02.gif

I wonder if the iboc signal is messing with the analog AGC, making the
signal motorboat.
