Yea, it does - stations won't be able to afford the new transmitters/ antennas, if the 10db power increase is approved for FM-HD. A large percentage of stations believe the technical sacrifices on this increase do not justify the potential gains today. The interference to in-market second adjacents may be too severe to tolerate, and the gains not quantifiable today. So now you admit that IBOC is a QRM generator?? No, not at current levels. But a 10 db increase would cause some issues.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - "HD Interference: Not Just For AM Anymore" "Radio World Engineering Extra dropped a bomb this month with a very provocative cover story: 'What Are We Doing to Ourselves, Exactly?' Written by Doug Vernier, the man who authored the technical specifications for an ongoing Corporation for Public Broadcasting- sponsored HD Radio interference analysis, the report is the first of its kind to document interference between FM-HD stations around the country. Using anecdotal reportage, some sophisticated contour- mapping, and presumably 'early data' from the CPB study, Vernier's article conclusively proves how stations running in hybrid HD/analog mode can (and do) interfere somewhat significantly with not only themselves, but their neighbors on the FM dial." http://diymedia.net/archive/1207.htm#122307 "Editorial: More Than Half Full" "AM-HD continues to fight uphill. Several manufacturers showed impressive new transmitter models designed to optimize and maintain HD performance. Yet the growth of AM-HD stations coming on the air appears stalled and we hear murmurings about some broadcasters pulling back on AM-HD or wishing to renegotiate their commitments with Ibiquity." http://www.rwonline.com/pages/s.0044/t.13363.html "Citadel Halts AM Nighttime IBOC Operation Amid Complaints" "An excerpt from his memo to staff reads: In response to the lackluster performance, the limited benefit and various reports of significant interference, Citadel is suspending nighttime AM HD operations at this time. Please reinstate your previous procedures for daytime-only HD operation as soon as possible.” http://www.radioworld.com/pages/s.0121/t.8847.html Cum again ? LOL! |
