Re: [IRCA] Beyond IBOC

I think a little bit of enthusiastic IBOC talk
fosters solidarity among those effected by
the QRM and those, not yet familiar with this
alarming new trend.

You know what they say about the Universe and a vacuum.

My long view is simple.
The IBOC cheerleaders will make a small fortune
on pushing this product.
The concept will not catch on with end consumers.
Why? All those reasons have been discussed already
(and I am limiting myself to how much I stir this up)
Finally, the North American AM marketplace may well
wither and die - and although we may be bereft of this
loss, the ultimate reward will be for those who still
cherish the long haul AM reception from across the
ocean or across the continents.

TV did not kill radio.

Video did NOT kill the radio star.

And IBOC will not kill DXers.
We are too strong.
