Study: Analog Would Suffer from 10 dB HD Power Boost

"At 10% IBOC transmission power, most stations would gain covered
population, approximately equaling analog indoor and portable and
exceeding auto. However, they’d pay the price from digital interference
to their analog signals. At this power level, stations would lose an
average of 26% of their FM auto population coverage because of IBOC
interference, the lab concludes. “Interference would affect some
stations severely,” 41% could lose a third or more of their covered
population and 18% would lose more than half of their population."

It's a problem on AM also. Since they started broadcasting IBOC KOGO has
a lot of the digital hiss in their audio for whatever reason.

KFI gets messed up evening also with this hiss although it seems to
coming from another station.

I also get this hiss on a pretty close local KVTA on 1520 evenings at
times.

From 1% up to 4% is the Solution.

Hell no. Turning off the digital noise is the solution.
