These statements are all entirely correct...which continues to beg the question: if there's nothing we as DXers can do except wait it out, why do some of us get SO very worked up by any bit of even vaguely pro-IBOC writing that gets forwarded to the list, regardless of the source or the date on it? As someone who writes for several industry trade publications (Radio World until recently, Radio Journal for a while now, and soon Radio Guide as well), I can tell you that most of these articles make precisely zero impact on the industry. How long has it been since anyone, pro-IBOC or anti-, has really had anything new to add to the discussion? It certainly feels, especially on this end, like it's just the same old complaints being rehashed endlessly, and to what point? s _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: irca@hard-core-dx.com
