"Have some FMs temporarily shut off their HD signals – to save on the
electric bill?"

Yesterday’s T-R-I lead story predicted that this 2009 NAB convention
will have “truths revealed” about issues like HD Digital Radio – and
sure enough, I got this email from a regional exec at a big group who
knows of “several companies shutting down their HD signals in some
markets to cut electrical cost. In our company [one of the top five or
six groups] we would rather turn that off temporarily than cut more
people loose. By the way – there have been no complaints or calls in
the markets that have done it. And in one market I know of, we’ll save
about $3,000 to $5,000 annually. Right now, every penny counts. We are
trying to save peoples’ jobs.”
