The Maryland jobs-development loan specified iBiquity's 2008 payroll
as having 38 positions.

Looks like the IBOC pioneers just laid off FIFTY-TWO percent of their
existing workforce.


"iBiquity moves to conserve"

"HD Radio may be growing, but technology developer iBiquity is not
immune from the overall economic downturn. It laid-off about 20
employees last week. CEO Bob Struble, who despite the cost-cutting,
remains upbeat about its strong forward movement."

"iBiquity of Columbia is to receive a $300,000 conditional loan for
expansion, but the funds are contingent on the company retaining its
existing 38 jobs through Dec. 2013 and adding 82 positions. The loan,
through the state Department of Business and Economic Development,
will be used in connection with a $30,000 match from Howard County for
the company to relocate and expand in Columbia."
