I noticed the WABC IBOC is still on tonight, pretty much obliterating WJR-760. And, if I widen the IF filter bandwidth on the SDR-14 to include the whole 10KHz audio of local WPRV-790, the WABC hiss is audible. Since I'm only a few miles from the 5kw 790 site and in the major lobe, it's not

[IRCA] KNX IBOC still off

2009-02-23 Thread Dennis Gibson
Somebody somewhere mentioned that KNX's IBOC is off. I'm pleased to report that it's still off 24/7. Maybe we'll get lucky and they won't turn it on again. There was a recent change in management (empty suit type; not engineering) there. Maybe the new guy sees IBOQ for what it is (and isn't).
