I think you meant WDCD, right?  I'm pretty sure I've heard them running
IBOC in recent days - they're one of the strongest skywave signals here,
and they really do a number on 1530/1550.

The Crawford website says they're committed to converting 80% of their 
stations by the end of 2008, but all of the FMs will be done soon, so they 
they're moving more slowly on the AM side.
