Yeah but...

Right now, they are sending far less power than they are allowed.  
Really, right now, we don't know for sure how far the signal will go  
when it gets powered up. I do remember the report though where it was  
shown to be less.

I am waiting for the real world thing to happen but I expect total  
digital some time in the next 5-10 years.

This morning, I had hash from hell coming from KUTR 820 in  
Taylorsville, UT and KOA in Denver. I figured that if I was going to  
be able to decode DX IBOC, this would have been it. Sadly, it didn't  
decode. The analog was fine though. Its just that the digital  
sidebands were huge but not enough to decode.
