What will this do to the FM-HD IBLOCK power increase?
 
"NAB sues FCC on low power radio displacement"

"Today, the Federal Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia
Circuit is hearing oral arguments in a lawsuit brought by the National
Association of Broadcasters (NAB) against the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC)... The NAB has filed suit in a spiteful effort to
make sure that LPFMs lose their channels... A current bill, the Local
Community Radio Act, was recently introduced in the House... This bill
has widespread bi-partisan support and is widely believed to be ripe
for passage in the coming months... The NAB's arguments against low
power radio lack any legal merit in the first place, and will be even
more irrelevant once the Local Community Radio Act is passed. At this
point, we can only surmise that the NAB is just trying to create
further confusion and hassle for LPFMs."

"Court upholds LPFM status"

"The U.S. Court of Appeals has handed the NAB a defeat as it upholds a
December 2007 FCC decision to block full-power radio stations from
knocking about 40 LPFMs off the air. The Media Access Project calls it
a 'critical win for the future of LPFM.' The NAB is weighing its
options."

I would assume this just put a real kink in the corrupt NAB's/
iBiquity's plans... get the ****ing lawyers - LOL!
