Whatever happened to low power hd radios that were just on the horizon
according to ibiquity? Every year we hear the same thing and as usual nothing materializes. How long will this nonsense continue? At least when FM came on the scene there were plenty of FM radios to choose from - so that old and tired comparison from ibquity is meaningless. What’s up with that Mr. "Radio Pioneer" Struble? Eduardo - Any comment? |

How long will this nonsense continue? Why do you keep posting this crap in this newsgroup that is completely off topic, and that most people are sick and tired of seeing? Another Google Grouper hits the killfile. |

II, and then changed from 47 MHz to the current band after the War. There were no radios available. By 1950, there were over 1000 FM stations licensed (source, Broadcasting Yearbook 1950) yet by 1960 there were only around 650 (idem, '60 edition). There were hardly any radios available, and the ones that were out there cost many times that of a common AM radio. That was 20 years after FM stations began to broadcast. In 1977, FM surpassed AM in audience. Today, in many markets, AM has less than 10% of all listening. Whether HD will work during a recession is anybody's guess. And whether AM is even worth trying is on many owner's minds. But expecting a change in a couple of years is absurd. Satellite is in Year 9 now, and still loses nearly $1 billion a year and may not survive. |

Nationwide wireless web access is on our horizon, with consumers receiving content via paid or free access supported by advertisers. Every radio will be web enabled. So get ready for URADIO created in many forms and colors. One form will be commercial broadcasters, competing head on with a guy or gal creating basement content. Google that! |

If I recall (and I do), Struble boldly stated several years back that his hd radio would become the "norm" in a few short years. Go back through recent radio history and check it for yourself. In case you haven't noticed - a few short years have come and gone - good buddy. He also stated that when you purchase a radio you would automatically assume you purchased an hd "digital" radio. Didn't happen - not even close. Once again you look at the world in your typical distorted way but it's always fun talking to you anyway. You do need to get another profession thought. |
