Default FM HD in its current form will likely survive it's unlikely AM HD will fail.

KFI?


Yes, when they replace the tower that was felled by an airplane. Currently,
the emergency facility has a high Q ATU and ugly load properties and they
can not put the HD exciter on; Clear Channel has a corporate mandate for HD
on all AMs.


How amusing - the HD Radio Alliance's stations are jamming each other,
so the AM-HDs have to cycle their exciters off and on!
