Re: [IRCA] AM IBOC editorial update

[mwdxer@xxxxxxxxx (Patrick Martin)]

KAZ,

The last time I heard KGO SF (810) at night with IBOC, which has been
several months, I could not get rid of the IBOC hash on 810. No matter
how carefully I tuned the R8 or SPR4, any bandwidth, I could not get rid
of the hash. It was extremely uncomfortable to listen to. After a while
to tuned to another station. It really bugged me. I am sure the IBOC
noise got to others too. The plan is to turn the analog off in time
leaving just the HD IBOC. If that ever happens, then goodbye to any AM
station outside of a few miles out of town. The AM dial here will be
totally gone and AM radio will be totally dead. nil, zip, goodbye.  That
leads me to the comment that some person posted after Craig's article
saying "Are you trying to kill radio?" Well, if IBOC becomes a reality
widespread, then it will be killed. We are trying to keep it alive.
Apparently some don't know that.

73,

Patrick
