Saw a fairly good blowout price on a tabletop Accurion, had only
recently heard of them, seems fairly decent quality, good fit-'n-finish,
made in China.
AMBCB was somewhat of a disappointment as there are only two stations I
could get here in SoCal with the inferior low-gain supplied indoor loop,
KNX 1070 and KOGO 600 and they both only showed their call sign and no
program info, KNX did say it was in Los Angeles. The FMBCB on the other
hand was a pleasant surprise with many stations offering sub channels
and the local Public Broadcasting station, KPBS 89.5, offering two. I
know there's been lots of talk about the bandwidth hogging aspect of
HD-AMBCB, maybe that could be dropped, but the digitally encoded
sub-channels of FMBCB don't seem to have any more negative effect than
the long standing presence of SCA services, which aren't even noticed
when tuning. I don't regret having a nice sounding tabletop that I can
control via an IR remote, even if all HD goes away.

Hope you didn't pay full price for it. IBOC/HD Radio is junk
technology that's failing to make any significant headway....
anywhere.

- thank God.
