WABC-77 AM (along with WOR-710 and WFAN-66 AM) shuts down the IBOC down
for the night.

WCBS-88 AM, however is running it 24/7. I guess they're experimenting
interference with WLS-89 AM,Chicago?

WNYC-82 AM was running IBOC day and night for the past month (10,000
watts day, 1000 watts night). The exciter has been off since this past
Friday night, however. As of this morning, it was still shut off.

WADO-1280 AM's exciter has also been off over the weekend. I don't
know what happened this morning, though. Didn't tune in.

So I don't know what's been happening...aside from LOTS of hash in the
daytime.
My Tivoli-Model 1 is now useless on AM in the daytime. Go figure.

I'm still waiting for WINS-1010, WEPN-1050 and WBBR-1130 to go
IBOC...maybe in a few months time? Ditto the regionals (WPAT-AM 93,
WZRC-1480, etc.), although those were playing with IBOC back in 2003
and then shut it off, never to turn it back on.

Salem Broadcasting (WMCA-57 and WWDJ-97 AM) are holding off on IBOC for
now....

Lovely. All digital radio is a step toward more complete

On a number of occasions, stations have run their IBOC all night. In
most cases this seems to involve major stations operated by major groups
such as Clear Channel. As much as some people may dislike Clear
Channel, they are not known for violating FCC technical regulations. [0]
I suppose in one or two cases there's been a simple mistake or failure
of a timer, but I have to think in most cases these stations have some
kind of temporary authority from the FCC for testing purposes.

(in most cases I've heard of, the IBOC is staying on *all night* -
including between sunset and midnight - not just during the experimental
period when it might arguably be legal without STA)

Indeed, Salem reportedly *removed* IBOC from WIND-560 Chicago when they
acquired it from a different owner.

You can do whatever you want between Midnight and 4 AM, as long as you
don't run paid.

Good info.. Thanks

WABC 770 NYC seems to be running IBOC at night (now 4:30am EDT),
wiping out WJR 760 Detroit listening in Central Ohio, which is
a pretty hefty signal to be wiping out.
