Something to do with occupying the Mind with Sounds that cause it to subprocess them; and allowing the rest of the Mind to Function more Normally. http://www.naturaladhdcure.com/holistic.html There are some ways to mitigate minor ADD/ADHD with behavior modification and non-drug methods, though the drugs really do work. The key thing with the ADD meds is to find the lowest dose that works. Too low a dose and the meds have no effect at all, too high a dose and it can cause problems. It's mostly trial and error to find the proper dose. Fortunately no one has to rely on KDFC, whether analog or digital, for classical music. |

There is the Greater Media FM in Boston whose calls escape me vs. the NPR station on Naragansett Pier in RI. *There are the three Clear Channel 1130s in Detroit, Milwaukee and Minneapolis who turned off HD at night to avoid interference with WRVA. *There's KFMB vs. KBRT. There was WFIL vs. WHP (second adjacent.) *The chief engineer of WNTP was complaining on the Philly board of radio-info about WMVP Chicago within his protected contour. *On the Pittsburgh board here there are many complaints of WBZ seriously impacting KDKA at night. *And of course Citadel turned off HD at night on WABC, WSB and WJR after only a week because of skywave problems. *I could go on, but that should suffice. And if, as you state, there are "special cases," what do you think should be done about them? *Thus far the Commission's approach is to ignore all interference issues. *There hasn't been a single case in the history of HD of the Enforcement Bureau ordering interfering stations to reduce digital power or turn it off. *Do you think that's right? What's the "extra functionality" of HD on AM? *Multicasting isn't offered in HD-AM." http://boards.radio-info.com/smf/ind....msg1372694#ms.... AND: "Howard, you're right about viewing the prospect of the FCC actually doing something about an IBOC adjacent-channel interference case as - well, "dim." *But allow me to show you how this game is played: iBiquity, the Alliance and the lawyer-packed (and engineer-lite) FCC have conspired to create a little jurisdictional Catch-22 designed to prevent precisely the action you propose. *If a station victimized by IBOC interference tries to short-circuit the FCC complaint-and- enforcement process and sue the interferor directly, you land immediately into a legal conundrum. Yes: along with trashing the decades-old allocation scheme, distorting the NRSC standards and redefining what "interference" is, the IBOC cabal has thought of this too. So: you've filed your interference complaint(s) with the Enforcement Bureau - which the Commission staff, deeply in the tank for iBiquity, has resolutely spiked. *They'll pretend like they never received it. *If you press individual staff members, they will counsel you to approach the interferor to "try to work something out." *The interferors, knowing they hold all the cards, give you the finger. What the FCC WON'T do: take any action one way or other other. Your proposed case against the interfering station lands you in Federal court, because radio waves don't respect state borders and are thus by definition "interstate commerce." *Under Federal court rules, since Congress has given the FCC exclusive jurisdiction over the EM spectrum, you can't seek relief in Federal court until you have "exhausted administrative remedies." * Your complaint is still pending (recall, the FCC hasn't given you relief or dismissed it.) *Nor will they: if they grant you relief and order the offending station to reduce digital power or turn off the IBOC, they've just killed HD, which they don't want to do. *If they dismiss your complaint, they've greenlighted a Federal interference lawsuit which will also kill HD (nobody is going to install an expensive system which could either get them sued or which the FCC might order them to turn off.) *So - voila! *The FCC sits on your complaint. *Neat, huh? Of course, with the passage of time, the argument "you haven't exhausted administrative remedies" gets thinner and thinner, so you could head to court to point out that the FCC has spiked your complaint for a year or two - and these days, you could also add the argument that the FCC has NEVER taken action on ANY IBOC interference complaint (and notwithstanding a recent post here by The Cuyahoga Tejano alleging otherwise, there have been scores of them.) I believe that sooner or later somebody is going to sue over IBOC interference, and that becomes more likely with the pending HD-FM digital power increase. This time around, we're not talking about disused AM facilities but high-billing FMs worth tens of millions. *When the stakes get high enough, it's gonna happen. *But it will have to be a major player with resources, since litigating just the threshold jurisdictional issue could cost tens of thousands - with no guarantee of success, of course. *Then the ensuing lawsuit - promising as it does to be highly technical and hard to get a judge to understand or care about - could easily run to $250K in legal fees. But with a big major-market high- billing FM it could easily be worth it. *And THAT, boys and girls, will mark The End of IBOC. *The HD loons are sowing the seeds of their own demise with this nitwit digital increase - so I say, bring it!

Which makes suspect your motives for so shamelessly shilling for this fraud. Peter, You certainly have figured out this fraud. I too have read stories on the Web about iBiquity threatening enginers that speak out against HD Radio. One broadcaster said iBiquity "mildly threatenened" him to convert. I believe iBiquity has this as a "best-practices" clause in their contracts. This should have been a huge red-flag to stations that have converted. Of cource, if iBiquity's product was any good, this clause would have never appeared. I do hope that Keefe Bartels and Galax Wolf make good progress with their investigations, as class- actions would certainly derail Struble and his minions. The degree of this fraud would make Bernie Madoff blush, and probably jealous. Automakers are receiving nothing but complaints about HD Radio. I believe that HD Radio will eventually implode, but iBiquity is probably hoping for an IPO before the truth finally comes out. There will be no mandate for HD Radio, because there are no reclamation needs of spectrum, as there was for digital TV. So, iBiquity is threatening all of those stations that have turned off IBOC? Interesting, but not surprising... Notice that SMS derailed this thread from appearing in alt.radio.digital and rec.radio.shortwave. Imagine my surprise. |

Those are good goals, but the reality is that the existing broadcasters, both large and small, are dead set against such a dedicated digital band so it will likely not happen. They do not want to have to purchase additional spectrum and have new competitors. The whole reason IBOC came to be is because they needed buy-in from existing broadcasters and the FCC on a digital scheme that would allow a transition from analog to digital without creating a new digital band. ;d |
