Citadel says not to spend anything more on HD-AM.
An unimpeachable internal source at Citadel tells us: the word was
handed down from corporate for stations not to spend anything more on HD-AM. When iBiquity exciters break down (a frequent occurrence, from all available information) or require software upgrades, CEs have been directed to simply turn them off. Here they go: the first Decepticons to be demounted from their equipment racks, to be shuttled off to the elephants' graveyard of decommissioned obsolete equipment - the "ubiquitous" dusty back room at the transmitter site, populated by grimy ITC cart machines, wire- line remote control systems, phono preamps, and DOS computer hardware. Decepticons now face a new future of being cannibalized for project parts - finally an honest use for whatever components they can donate. Citadel has said, don't spend another nickel on HD-AM. WJR has been analog-only for months |
