I swear my HD/IBOC receiver uses a Sync Detector while tuning AM MW BCB.

Does anyone concur or know HD receiver design characteristics?

IF DSP seems pretty much a necessity for AM IBOC, and at least
pseudosynch detection appears to be fairly standard with DSP rigs.
(Whatever "pseudosynchronous" means exactly in this context. There are
quite a number of fairly different "synchronous detectors" to begin
with, and e.g. the Sony CXA1376 internal one and the AR7030's are hardly
comparable IMO, save for the fact that a product detector is involved.)

Another ironic footnote: It seems that RDS support is standard in FM
IBOC receivers, while otherwise it is not that common among receivers
sold outside Europe.

BTW, those who are already using DReaM for DRM decoding should try the
USB/LSB modes.
