Re: [IRCA] iPhones and IBOC



Unfortunately, and while no one but fooled broadcasters, Ibiquity and DXers cares or for the most part even knows about IBOC, I don't predict a quick end to this fiasco. Stations have spents lots of money on this very flawed and on AM useless tech, but a few more are still adding it, or putting it on all night like it is the Holy Grail to save AM. Thus I think it will be several years before stations start turning off the IBOC as they have little incentive to do so.

            That makes me want to reach for a bottle of Gerotol.
Hoperfully
we will get 10 yrs of the "real" oldies first ( 1950-1962 ) before that.
Dont see much of a future in MYL type stations with that generation
sadly dropping like flys.
            As far as IBOC goes it must be all but dead. How many AM's
are
getting conned into it lately ? A bad dream almost over.

Move over Mitch Miller & make room for Big Joe Turner

In another decade, FM will be frequented mostly by elderly people
listening to Jimi Hendrix and Mick Jagger tunes.  Or possibly the
talk/sports/ethnic stations will move from AM to FM as
music-oriented
stations succumb to shrinking audiences.  All of which makes me
wonder
what will happen to the AM band in a few more years.  Personally, I

would love having fewer stations, since it would mean less
interference .
