Saw a fairly good blowout price on a tabletop Accurion, had only
recently heard of them, seems fairly decent quality, good
fit-'n-finish, made in China. AMBCB was somewhat of a disappointment
as there are only two stations I could get here in SoCal with the
inferior low-gain supplied indoor loop, KNX 1070 and KOGO 600 and
they both only showed their call sign and no program info, KNX did
say it was in Los Angeles. *The FMBCB on the other hand was a
pleasant surprise with many stations offering sub channels and the
local Public Broadcasting station, KPBS 89.5, offering two. I know
there's been lots of talk about the bandwidth *hogging aspect of
HD-AMBCB, maybe that could be dropped, but the digitally encoded
sub-channels of FMBCB don't seem to have any more negative effect
than the long standing presence of SCA services, which aren't even
noticed when tuning. I don't regret having a nice sounding tabletop
that I can control via an IR remote, even if all HD goes away.
The more sub channels offered the lower the bit rate for any one
channel. The low bit rate may work for voice but not music. I don't
even like it for voice myself.
Radio is dead. Let the Liberal Fascists inherit the medium. The
future is untouchable by Socialist Government control. Internet
Streaming of digital 5.1 surround sound.
I'm not going to let them have it.
