[IRCA] WOR - WBZ IBOC report

[Bill Harms <philcobill@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I did a little dashboard scanning this morning 9/18.

Before sunrise WOR was covered with hiss from WGN. The audio was 
unlistenable. Right after Sunrise, WDMV 700 suffered from WOR's hiss 
machine and it was annoying listening to them. I am in their secondary 
coverage area and I bet they have lost some listeners as a result of 
WOR's IBOC. Their signal is normally listenable. WWII was completely 
covered with WOR's hiss.

Last night, 710 was completely covered with hiss from WGN. Before WGN 
fired up their IBOC it was possible to hear either Cuba or WOR with a 
decent listenable signal. Now that is impossible. Things will really get 
bad once WLW fires up their IBOC.

Once WGN faded out this morning, WOR put in a decent enough signal here 
to be listenable.

As noted before, WBZ, which was normally listenable in the mornings 
before sunrise on the way to work, was wiped out by WHO's IBOC.
