I'm enjoying the stations, WCMF HD2 in particular, but there are seem to be a lot of dead spots well within the city limits. I take 490 in each day, and there are a lot of stretches where 95.1, 100.5, and 106.7 drop out completely. Anybody have experiences/opinions to share? Does anybody know about current or pending power increases in our area?" "Im not anywhere near Rochester, but your experiences are typical. Some radio industry weenies are trying to push through a big power increase for all HD stations to solve this problem, but until that happens (and don't hold your breath), about all you can do is experiment with better antennas and signal boosters. The technology just doesn't work all that well in moving vehicles." SNIP Higher transmit power will not solve the moving car dropouts. It might actually make it worse. HD sucks. -- Telamon Ventura, California Let's hope so... |
