Alright then the amount of time the radio plays. That comment
didn't quite fit in with semiconductor chip sets.


So can you point me to a HD portable that runs off batteries?
Far as I can see there are none.


Your reading comprehension really bites, doesn't it? I have said
multiple times that there will be a minimum of two and as many
as 4 low power consumption HD chips shipping in Q1 of 2008;
these will enable portables and boom boxes of all sizes and we
should see the first in Q2 or Q3 of 2008.


Nothing wrong with my reading comprehension since I did not read
those posts bozo. The posts I read spoke of portables back in
2006.


Nobody with any actual knowledge thought there would be portables
in 2006.


Not true. The availability of portables was predicted well before
2006.

That's correct. The marketing bozos don't realize that HD, DRM or other
digital modes will require a constant processing load in order for the
receiver to function. This means there will be a constant demand for
power from the batteries. One way that semiconductors can save power is
by shutting down circuits from switching when they are not needed but
that can't happen here.

I don't expect someone like Eduardo to understand the technical details
of the hurtles that need to be overcome for HD portable development.

I expect Eduardo to have the first HD portable though. This portable
will be held in one hand and his other hand will be used to pull the
small cart with a diehard car battery to power it walking the streets of
LA.

How's Eduardo ever going to hold the required AM-loop and FM-dipole
antennas?


The antenna will be taped to his head.

That reminds me..it's been DECADES since your foster family, in

Remember how long you were in a body cast? Three months, if I recall.
Remember how long you've been a dumbass Canuck? Since you were born, if I recall.



Alcohol impairs memory and recall. Hence, your recall is not to be trusted.


You're a dumbass Canuck. Therefore, like a faux Hispanic, you are not to be trusted.

You seem to have a hard time keeping track of just how little Miami you
are let alone anyone of Hispanic extraction. Lay off the booze and
maybe, just maybe, you'll be able to keep track of your lineage.


I keep track of things just fine. After all, I'm not a dumbass Canuck!

It had a crummy 1st generation chipset, and a lousy front end: it is nowhere
near as good as the monaural non-HD Receptor. And it was discontinued.


Yes, the best achievable portable HD AM receiver crashed and burned.

You can fight this issue out with iBiquity. Let us know how you make

Boston Acoustics hasn't discontinued the HD Recepter yet. You can
still purchase it from the BA website:

I have a Receptor HD right here on my desk. It is anything but portable.
It
is a tabletop radio. It can't run off batteries, as it has none except a
penlight to hold clock memory in power failures.


Funny, iBiquity disagrees.


No, they don't. The radio is not portable, and can not run off battery
power.- Hide quoted text -

d'Eduardo - One man's gibberish

d'Eduardo - More importantly you can not reply to the real
Technical Issue of IBOC Broadcasting and Practical Aspect
of Analog AM/MW Radio Band Listening after IBOC has
been Implemented.

Again you clearly don't have the sense to understand
that IBOC is Trashing the AM/MW Radio Band.
- - - And You Can Not Reply To This Very Practical Issue
of IBOC Noise Across the AMMW Radio Band !

I made this statement as an owner of and IBOC Dual Mode
{so called "HD"} Analog and Digital Radio.

* Radi-Osophy HD-100 Radio
- - - Even With An "HD" Radio Analog AM/MW Radio
Band Listening Now SUCKS Beyond {and often within}
the 10mv/m Contour Due To IBOC !

As each week goes by the Digital Hash from more and
more IBOC AM/MW Radio Broadcasts is getting more
noticeable even on that "HD" Radio.
- - - AM/MW Radio Listening Is Getting More and More
Limited and Ain't Fun Anymore !

d'Eduardo - I Ask Myself : What IBOC ?
All I See Is The Blinking Blue Light ! ~ RHF
In the Distant Land Where IBOC Fears To Go :
Life Exists and Radio Listeners Live Beyond the 10mv/m Contour.
.
The Bottom Line - For the Most Part IBOC has resulted
in the Loss of This {Me} and I suspect many more Analog
AM/MW Radio Listeners.

Year and Have Started To Check-Out The Music Channels
