Preaching Hate For IBOC : No Digital Love Allowed

Your first hint that it had no validity should have been "an anonymous source..." "An anonymous source..." is the beginning about half of all news stories. "Deep Throat," who brought down the Nixon administration, was an 'anonymous source.' There's not a police department in the world that doesn't have an 'anonymous source' program for gathering active crime information within their jurisdictions, including the FBI. Anonymity doesn't preclude validity. It only means that the source doesn't want to face censure, persecution or litigation as a result of speaking out. And if you ask engineers working with iBiquity products, off the record, you'll get a LOT of information about iBiquity's threats against those who speak out against their IBOC system. You know, Brother, quality products neither need, nor benefit from, enforced silence. And if what iBiquity was claiming for their system were true, they would not have written gag clauses into their contracts threatening dissenting engineers with litigation for speaking out about interference, audio quality or coverage. The very fact that these clauses were written into the contracts underscores that fact that iBiquity knew that what they were claiming was untrue. And that they knew it from the outset. Struble sits atop a phenomenally lucrative scam. And the public bears the burden of his hubris with inferiour performance, poorer audio quality, and spotty coverage with frequent dropouts. 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. |
