Not when they cause interference on the band and harm reception on other
stations.

I suggest you get up to speed on some of the tests that have been done
and are currently in progress.


I am more up-to date than you could imagine.

There has been no widespread interference complaints from the public...and
virtually all stations are protected within their contours.

Reminds me of the engineers who didn't want to turn on the stereo
pilot...because they were afraid to give up any coverage area.

FM HD-Radio and the HD-2 Channels are
about Expanding the FM Radio Business
and the minor technical issues are simply
the cost of doing more business. ~ RHF

The broadcasters being interfered with don't consider such interference
a "minor technical issue".


Can you state a broadcaster that is being interfered with in their protected
contours?

Again, if this is so prevailent, why isn't there a pile of listeners
complaints at the FCC?

Stereo destroys FM coverage. Those engineers were right.

People don't complain as much as they just find other things to listen
to. Digital sidebands increase analog channel noise. That is a fact.
Now if they were to quit trying to do stereo in the analog channel, that
might work.

Protected Contours need to be rethought. Lots of people live in
suburbs, out of any protected contours. Are you saying they have no
right to listen to NPR, which they help finance?

Stereo multiplexing in and of itself does no damage to the coverage area.
Listening on a monaural receiver or in mono mode with a stereo receiver
gives the same coverage as a monaural transmitter would.

And those that were purists and held to that belief....are all out of
business.
