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. You are nothing but a botom-feeder shill for HD Radio. The Accurian is one of the bigger POS HD radios. HD Radio has failed to generate any consumer interest. Terrestrial radio is on the verge of bankruptcy. Radio should not be treated like some kind of cash cow. *It should be used for promoting the free interchange of ideas and artistic expression, and for the ownership to tell us what they think of America. Put your own station on the air and implement your ideas, since I think were both in SoCal, I might be able to receive it and I'll give you my feedback.- Hide quoted text - http://townhall.com/columnists/Frank...&comments=true |
