Re: [IRCA] Wince-worthy IBOC praise article

Scott,

Almost none of us were aware that this was an article from over a year ago 
when we posted our comments about it. I, like most others assumed that it 
was recently (ie this week) written, which to me, makes it laughable inlight 
of what is now being experienced with HD IBOC.
