Just Read That iBiquity Has Hired a New V.P. of Sales!
Took a trip to the local Best Buy to check on the status of HD radio
sales. Same three units still there - imagine that. This stuff is hot - and a college town at that. Just read that iBiquity has hired a new V.P. of sales - a Mr. Stocks from MyerEmco. Seems I've seen that guy on TV a few years back selling Ginsu knives or something like that. OK, maybe it was laundry detergent. In making the announcement, Bernie Sapienza, iBiquity's Vice President of Retail Business Development, said, "We are happy to bring JR on board at this important time, when the growth in HD Radio products at retail is increasing. We will rely on him to work with our retail and manufacturing partners to build HD Radio technology's presence at retail." Seems iBiquity might want to start with a little honesty about their current state of sales, or lack of. The dudes at iBiquity are spin- masters. At least Ginsu knives work. Also read that iBiquity will not support any further development of AM HD beyond the current state. That should send a shiver to those boys currently transmitting AM HD. These iBiquity dudes are techno-wizards. Even a school boy with a rudimentary understanding of amplitude modulation schemes knows there is no way to transition from an analog signal to a digital one without taking huge chunks of bandwidth. Unless you want if to sound like a cell phone. Welcome aboard the Titanic JR. jw |

There is no way to stop skip, but if the IBOC hash wipes the signal out, then the locals will have to listen to their local station. Kind of like legal jamming. Considering that, then even if the public does not buy the radios, keeping the IBOC signal might be worth their while." http://www.am-dx.com/amiboc.htm "DEAD AIR: Radio's great leap forward stalling in the Valley" "KMBH, the National Public Radio affiliate based in Harlingen, switched to HD this year, but the change did not boost its inconsistent analog signal in the upper Valley. Monsignor Pedro Briseño, the manager of the station and its television affiliate, did not return multiple calls and an e-mail requesting comment on the station’s shift. A fundraising campaign on the station asked local listeners to contribute to the upgrade earlier this year, touting the change as a service to listeners that would improve their experience. The station’s business manager said she could not reveal the cost of the upgrade, saying all media requests have to be routed to Briseño. A public information request faxed to the station Monday evening has not yet received a response. Organizations that receive government funding are subject to state and federal open records laws, but have seven business days to respond to information requests." http://www.themonitor.com/news/radio...gital_new.html "HD Radio: Will More Awareness Translate To Sales?" "Unfortunately, Ibiquity does not: Yes, they have gotten many radio stations to make the $100,000 or so investment required to add HD Radio broadcasting, but what the leave out of their PR spin is that MANY of these stations were Public Radio/NPR stations that had their equipment paid for by special funding from Congress. So tell me, senior executives from, say, Sony, Mitsubishi, Best Buy, etc.: How do you feel about Ibiquity''s lobbyists getting US taxpayers to pick up the tab for many of their transmitter sales? Wouldn''t it be great if your lobbyists could get Congress to mandate that US taxpayers be required to buy your products, too? Do you even slightly care? Ibiquity will take their money and run, and HD Radio will join a long list of failed formats, like Dolby FM radio, Elcassete, mini disk (in the US), etc." http://tinyurl.com/37pe7t "HD Radio: Fun with Math" "I think it is fair to say that the audiophile community, those people who take their FM seriously, is dead set AGAINST HDRadio. Not only do most people never intend to buy a radio, unless as a plaything for early adopters and collectors, but are aghast at the FCC for even allowing IBOC to thrash up the FM bandwidth. Plus, people with enough technical savvy to read the specs are insulted by the false claims of 'CD sound quality' or even 'near-CD sound quality'. These are transparent marketing hype, beyond mean puffery. Sorry, but HDRadio has sworn enemies. This goes beyond just business but has political reprecussions for FCC and for Congress. This has the whiff of political scandal - and I'm a rock-ribbed Republican! The Corporation for Public Broadcasting is especially vulnerable. My advice for any businessman is to avoid any association with HDRadio." http://www.hear2.com/2006/06/hd_radio_fun_wi.html |

Radio stocks are down 90%, Clear Channel is a bust (the HD Alliance took over the loser MSN Direct from CC), CC is no longer investing in the future, the 10db power increase for FM-HD, if approved, will require the replacement of all hardware, which isn't going to happen. iBiquity must have eaten up all of the initial investment money long ago, so what the hell is going on? Where the hell are iNiquity's investors - has Struble been able to spinmister his way so far, telling investors one lie after another? Struble doen't seemed concerned that iNiquity hasn't been profitable: "IBiquity sees digital radio signaling changes to come" "The company has yet to turn a profit and does not expect to do so in 2007 or 2008, Struble said... Mass marketing and consumer adoption is the last hurdle, Struble said... Representatives of investment firms that have spots on iBiquity's board of directors could not be reached for comment, but Struble said they are excited about the progress the company is making. The focus is not on exit strategies yet, he said." http://tinyurl.com/3don5y Interesting, that investment firms could not be reached for comment. If the investors are excited about iNiquity's progress, then Struble is definately lying his ass off. WTF? |

No, Myer-Emco was not bought out- I ought to know- dont you think?- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - "Myer-Emco Inc. bought out by competitor" May 8, 2007 5:48 PM (301 days ago) by Melissa Frederick, The Examiner WASHINGTON (Map, News) - New York-based Harvey Electronics Inc. has purchased local audio and video retailer and installer Myer-Emco Inc. of Gaithersburg. Myer-Emco began as a ham radio repair shop in a home in Silver Spring in 1955, and grew to a chain of 10 stores in the D.C. area. Harvey has nine locations in New York and New Jersey and has been in business for 75 years. Both specialize in high-end products and customized installations, targeting wealthier markets. "So many industry contacts have been coming up to me and saying, 'Gee, this makes perfect sense,'" Myer-Emco President and Chief Operating Officer Gary Yacoubain said Tuesday. "You couldn't find two more alike companies." Financial terms of the purchase were not disclosed. Yacoubain will remain in his position at the combined company and Harvey will retain the rest of the company's management team as well. After the purchase, the stores will continue to operate under their own names, and no branding will change, the executives said. Martin McClanan, Harvey's interim chief executive officer, said the agreement allows the company to continue to invest heavily in training their workforce to make sure they have an educated sales team. "We're not really trying to become a big box retailer; we want to be the place you go if you are looking for a great quality product, or for someone to actually do your installation," Yacoubain said. http://www.examiner.com/a-717164~Mye...petitor.htm l You stupid ****, JR - you don't even know your own business! LIER! Now, go crawl back to your hole, and keep repairing all of thaose ham radios! Loser! Just like everyone else, you'll never be able to sell those empty HD radios! iBiquity scammed you, too! Stupid ****! |
