Re: [IRCA] IBOC TIME LAG



The delay is to allow a buffer on the digital signal. What happens is if the
digital signal is lost for more than the buffer can replace, it falls back
to analog, and the switching, other than the audio quality, is seamless.

Craig, please describe what happens when you experience the 8 second  
time difference. Does the JVC pop back and forth between the out-of- 
sync IBOC-vs-analog audio or does it just die out when the IBOC  
signal isn't strong enough? So all on-the-hour time pips are 8  
seconds late on IBOC?

Thanks.
