Re: [IRCA] IBOC - a request

["Bob Young" <youngbob53@xxxxxxx>]

I don't see what the problem is with discussing it, it is a legitimate topic 
for discussion in my opinion as it severely impacts DXing. Are we supposed 
to stick our heads in the ground and pretend it's not happening? Nothing the 
matter here Ma? It is kind of depressing to think that IBOC may kill DXing 
and maybe even AM radio, but it's reality and I for one would like to be 
kept up on it. As matter of fact I took a ride about 75+ miles from Boston 
this morning and checked WBZ's IBOC hash and yes it was still overpowering 
out there on my car radio during the day on 1020 and 1040. This is the kind 
of stuff I think all DXer's should know. I'm sure there are maybe still a 
lot of us who haven't had the pleasure of experiencing it firsthand and 
would like to know about it. It's not exactly front page news, in fact I 
never heard of it before the NRC and IRCA forums and have never really seen 
anything about it anywhere else. I have learned a lot about it in the past 
year from posts and websites that were published here and in other radio 
forums. If we can't get the info here in a forum which specializes in things 
DX, where are we supposed to go for this info?
