Re: [IRCA] KFI 640 is now IBOC

Hey Patrick:

When KFI first came on the air with their new antenna a few weeks
(months?) ago, they were blaring in up here, but they are noticeably
weaker these days, not much stronger than when they were on their back-up
antenna.  In listening to KFI tonight, their audio sounds atrocious,
indicating they are IBOCing.  I can't say I notice their IBOC some 1200
miles to the north, although I have a strong local on 630 that covers up
the lower digital sideband noise and enough occupants on 650 to make the
upper digital sideband manageable.
