Re: "Why the drop outs?


And IOBOC doesn't either...unless youa re listening to stations that are
not
required to cover your area.

That's retard talk. If I want to listen to it and a near by IBOC station
screws that up is all I care about.

If you want to listen to BBC Radio I in America and you can't pick it up
because a NYC station is on the same frequency, should the FCC mandate a
change?

Face it. Stations are only protected within certain contours.

Outside of that it's gravy.

BS. People that want to listen to stations on the dial are not holding
back technological innovation IBOC does that.

two thoughts...

You can't listen to everything...as radio signals are finite...and they are
only protected so far...

Second, there are many more station offerred thru IBOC. So "lack of choice"
is a nonissue.

IBOC has elicited a massive ennui from the American populus

How lonf did FM take to be the accepted standard?

What has that have to do with IBOC?

New standards and new technology take time for the public to realize.

And since this is an advertiser supported medium...the content depends on
the listenership.

The FCC isn't protecting nightime clear channel stations anymore...

Yes, the stations themselves are doing it.

There's not much a former "clear channel" station can do if the FCC allows
another station on their frequency.
