He comes to this group spouting all kinds of bull**** that is hostile to the interests of the people here, whines like a baby when he catches hell and says the same thing over and over and over....all to elicit a reaction of outrage and indignation on the part of the posters here. He is good at trolling. I'll give him that. But he's a piece of ****. No one denies that AM is dying, but in that case let it die with dignity instead of ****ing on it when it's down. AM is not a person. There is no dignity in its death, but there is the loss off tens of thousands of jobs, and the losses to maybe hundreds of thousands of mutual fund shareholders, insurance companies and pension plans. Further, whether you agree with me or not, HD is coming and it is time to discuss whether any of the remaining receiver manufacturers, like ICOM, will produce receivers or receiver modules for HD. This is going to be the new reality, and countries like Mexico and Colombia and Brazil in this Hemisphere are already reviewing or have adopted the standard. Rede Globo in Brazil has ordered $2 million in HD devices, for example, and plans to convert all its AMs in the next several years. |

It's one thing troll a newsgroup. It's not a nice thing, but it's forgiveable. But to mount a moral high horse and lament the loss of jobs and pension funds that you are personally, and intentionally, destroying is beyond rude. It is extremely distasteful, and sad. You obviously get some sort of 'kick' out of visiting this group, saying bizarre things, deriding the interests of others and just generally ****ting where other people live. Do you ever wonder why? Why do you derive more satisfaction out of putting other people down than from pursing interests of your own? Might be worth a moment's reflection. |

We are trying to preserve the value of tens of billions of dollars worth of AM stations by keeping them viable for longer. It is extremely distasteful, and sad. You obviously get some sort of 'kick' out of visiting this group, saying bizarre things, deriding the interests of others and just generally ****ting where other people live. The facts are that 1) I did not invent HD, 2) I had nothing to do with its FCC approval and, 3) never thought it was the best system. However, it is _the_ system and only system because AM does not have the time for a different one and because any system that is not on the same chip as the FM digital system will fail automatically. This is how AM radio in the Western Hemisphere and, probably, Asia is going to be. If you think reality is in disagreement with your interests, don't blame me. Go see a psychiatrist. Do you ever wonder why? Why do you derive more satisfaction out of putting other people down than from pursing interests of your own? Might be worth a moment's reflection. Putting down? Do you have any inkling of how fast AM is losing its economic viability in the USA? Most of the listeners are over 55, a group no large advertiser buys, and the younger demos are shrinking each year as the average age of AM listeners goes up. HD is as good as we are going to get to have a second chance on keeping AM viable. And did I forget to mention... in the Spanish / Portuguese equivalent of Radio World, several of the Brazilian operators were quoted as considering HD for domestic Short Wave. You might want me to blame me for that, too. |

[snip] Oh, my. This is serious. And since all the AM listeners are projected to become FM listeners, the ad money will similiarly go the FM stations. Will the FM stations be able to hire some of the current AM workers? Not if those AM workers die with AM radio, they won't. And those poor investors? Well, if they're looking ahead, they'll be selling Clear Channel and buying -- oh, I dunno -- maybe Clear Channel. Frank Dresser |
