Default Harker Research: HD Radio headed for oblivion - LMFAO!!!

OMG, iBiquity has been selling stock?! It's just terrible when a company
that's privately held and that is not traded on any stock exchange is
selling stock.

Of course the reality of digital radio is very different than what our
favorite troll writes about it.

There are two indicators of how digital radio is faring.

1. How well transmitters are selling and how many new digital
transmitters are being introduced by equipment manufacturers.

Harris, Continental, and Nautel all have reported increased sales of
digital radio transmission equipment.

2. How well receivers are selling and how many new digital receivers are
being introduced by receiver manufacturers.

Receiver sales went way up in 2010, and in 2011 the rate of increase has
increased even faster due to so many new vehicles being offered with
digital radio as standard or optional equipment.

Understandably, the success of digital radio, especially in the U.S.,
but now spreading to other regions as well, greatly upsets those that
have somehow become vested in hoping for the failure of digital radio.
