First, I am not Jewish, although I see nothing wrong with being a Jew.

Second, I am being realistic. There is no empirical evidence that any
significant listening to first or second adjacent AM channels inside the
contours of a local station. And AM listening is, and has been pre-HD,
declining fast. Markets like Houston have less than 10% AM listening, and
nearly all is over 55.

The fact is that there is nearly no listening to AM by people under 45,
because there are two generations of Americans who have never had a use for
AM. Same is true in many other nations of the world.

In any case, the analog AM broadcasts are not going away... HD is probably
too little and too late to save AM, but it does not really negatively affect
any real listening.

And they can continue to enjoy them in analog.

HD radio simply adds more functionality.

No one istaking away analog radio



Jamming other stations with fat sloppy digital sidebands
is indeed 'taking away' those other stations.

As I said, there is no empirical evidence that out of market stations were
or are being listened to in the first of second adjacent channels in the
shadow of a stronger local station.

They ran Indie 103.1 at a loss until the FCC stopped them.

They did no such thing. Indie was run by Entravision with a JSA (joint
sales agreement) with Clear Channel so they would not have to have a
separate sales department for a station (actually, combo) that only
covers about 20% of the market.

20% if you count unoccupied dirt. Clear Channel ran it at a loss to chip
away at KROQ and to claim the widest playlists in America. JSA usually
means the bigger entity runs things.

I meant "20% of the population" which is the way people in radio think of
coverage. Cattle and rattlesnakes don't carry people meters.

You are not Hispanic either.

'Eduardo', you pathetic little habitual liar. You haven't been 'realistic' since
you were about 12 years old.

You may want to rethink the rattlesnakes.

Don't forget that his mama kicked him out of Cleveland because he was an
embarrassment to her and her socialite pretensions.

Teens are not kicked out of anything but high school.

A person who gets a front page obit in a top-15 circulation daily does not
have "pretentions" to anything... they are already recognized community
leaders, not "socialites."

So? She did get you to hit the road so as to not be an embarrassment, did she
not?

Are you really certain that the Plain Dealer put obits on the front page? I'll
have to check that out as well!

No, that was my decision and desire... I was bored and suffering in school
in the US, and wanted to do something different.

It did in this case. My stepfather was the publisher of the Plain Dealer and
my stepbrother the editor.
