Not according to iBiquity, which maintains that the BA Receptor was
the best HD AM portable achievable.


Probably using the current chip design. Which is still not saying
much.


The receptor, of course, is not portable.


Explain that to iBiquity and report back.




Supposedly they're still working on a second generation design. Maybe
they should have waited a bit more till the receivers were perfected
before rolling this stuff out on the consumer market.


We are headed towards a 4th generation chipset next year.


Right. That's the one that Samsung says will be extremely expensive.
