Re: [IRCA] First impressions of 24h IBOC

Pat,

Yes, I agree & certainly will.

As an addition to that report, I noticed that KXPA became unlistenable
at about Northgate in Seattle last night on my way home. (It reached
the point that a "normal" listener would've probably tuned out before
that.) I think that is somewhere around 10 mi. from their tx site,
pretty much in the "main lobe".
