http://www.rwonline.com/showsthe cover of the current Radio World
magazine, where the lead article is about the Samsung chip, built around
a
SHDR100A peripheral processor and the SDHR200A main processor and flash
and
RAM memory and which is currently available. The article discusses the
power
requirements and all kinds of other HD developments shown at CES,
including
the SiPort chip, which is also available to manufacturers now. Both
consume
between 120 and 180 mW of power. Both chips are intended for integrated
devices.
If you qualify for an online subscription, you can read the entire
article.
"Don''t be put off by high power drain"

None of the receivers with these new chips is even shipping, you idiot.

The article was about DAB receivers, not HD Radio receivers, you idiot!

It is about HD chips, HD receivers and the integration of HD into
multipurpose devices. There is no DAB band nor DAB stations in the US. The
article mentioned that the chips could integrate DRM, DAB, HD and other
devices for the international market


One of the turning points on the way to the demise of traditional
broadcasting in the USA was the NAB's flat refusal to adopt Eureka 147
because legacy stations would lose their higher-power legacy facilities
and AM would have equal footing with FM.

Since then, Sirius and XM filled the void. Radio has been bleeding red
ever since.

Eureka did not even get to the NAB level; the band in the US is reserved for
military uses. It has failed miserably in canada, too.

ever since.

No, satellite has been bleeding. Clear Channel had EBITDA of $1.8 billion
last year while the satellite companies collectively lost $1.6 billion.

Radio billings were up 2% last year.
