Default MW HD time diversity

Listening to WJR 710 Detroit from Central Ohio, in scattered
thunderstorms, the lightning crashes are not heard, but rather
it just drops into the analog channel for a while until the
digital recovers.

If lightning crashes are rare enough so they aren't likely to
come in pairs, you never hear a lightning crash.

In heavier storms, the station becomes unlistenable, as it is
in analog alone.

That you don't hear the lightning crash means that the digital
and analog signals happen at different times, by at leash the
length of a static crash.

Perhaps the analog is delayed by the receiver, and the digital by
the transmitter, I don't know.
