Mexican IBOC - It's Borderblasters, revisited - LOL!
iBiquity Fraudsters
May 21, 2008 - "Mexico's Federal Telecommunications Commission
(CoFeTel) is authorizing radio stations within 320 kilometers, or
about 200 miles, of the Mexico-U.S. border to begin broadcasting in HD
Radio."
http://www.radioink.com/HeadlineEntry.asp?hid=142268&pt=todaysnews
"Mexico Says Hang on a Minute!"
"Mexico wants U.S. radio regulators to re-think their decision to
allow AMs to go IBOC at night and FMs to operate on the extended
hybrid digital carriers. Our neighbors to the south say they are not
happy the FCC authorized its recent 'final' IBOC rules governing
broadcast transmissions without first coordinating those through
international treaties."

It's Borderblasters, revisited. Mexico wants to have the option to
unleash mutually-assured-hiss-destruction (MADD HISS) in the event the
IBOC noise from La Frontera gets too bad. That's all, folks! LMFAO!

IBOC : The Path To HD-Radio Acceptance and Use . . .
Phase One of IBOC HD-Radio Implementation :
{Years 1~5}
Mixture of Analog and IBOC Digital Broadcasters
with very few HD-Radio Receivers :
The Analog Radio Listeners* Notice "The Hash/Buzz"
* Radio Listening is both Local and Distant Radio
Station Listening.
.
Phase Two of IBOC HD-Radio Implementation :
{Years 6~10}
Still a Mixture of Analog and IBOC Digital Broadcasters
with a mixture of Analog and HD-Radio Receivers :
Still the Analog Radio Listeners* Notice "The Hash/Buzz"
-but- HD-Radio Listeners Using HD-Radios Do Not
Hear "The Hash/Buzz"
* Radio Listening is mostly now Local still with some
Distant Radio Station Listening.
.
Phase Three of IBOC HD-Radio Implementation :
{Years 11~15}
Mostly IBOC Digital Broadcasters with some Analog
and mostly HD-Radio Receivers with some Analog :
Majority is now HD Radio Listeners* Who Are Now
Using HD-Radios and Do Not Hear "The Hash/Buzz"
-and- There still is a few Analog Radio Listeners who still
Notice "The Hash/Buzz" when they do not Listen 'Local'
* Radio Listening is now almost all 'Local' with very little
Distant Radio Station Listening.
NOTE : The AM/FM Radio Station Business Model
is Built-On "Local" Advertising -and- IBOC Forces All
Radio Listening To Be "Local" and Reduces Distant
Radio Listening ~translation~ IBOC Is Good Business.
-note- A Brokered Radio Program on 500 Radio Stations
with an 800# a/o Website is Still "Local" Advertising :
That is simply scaled-up by the means of distribution
to a nation-wide 'localized' market.
and that is the way 'i' see it ~ RHF

I saw the prelude to the entire IBOC debacle from the inside.
IBOC is a brazen scam.
Its primary purpose -- the purpose for which it was designed -- was
to preserve the vast signal superiority of the higher-power FM
stations over their lower-power FM, and AM, competitors. It was
designed specifically to _prevent_, as much as possible, any
increase in relative signal quality or coverage on the part of the
lower power and AM licensees that might otherwise have occurred.
In achieving this goal, IBOC has been quite successful.
It has, however, been totally unsuccessful in achieving any of its
other highly-touted goals.
In the process, it has ruined reception for many thousands of
listeners who wanted to hear some of the weaker, but formerly
perfectly listenable, stations.
The failure (and fraudulent nature) of IBOC, and the earlier failure
of AM stereo (and the frauds and self-deception that plagued that
debacle, too), are symptomatic of the steep decline of what used to
be the most technically advanced society on Earth.
With every good wish,
Kevin Alfred Strom.

Good. Now XEPRS can get even with KNX.

That's not an unreasonable view.
Eventually the allowable digital power is going to be raised to a level
where it really does cause unacceptable interference with analog, even
locally. So far, if you're listening to local stations, within their
protected contour, you're highly unlikely to notice any interference (at
least there have been no valid incidences of it that have been reported
to the FCC), but for long distance listening there can be issues. Alas,
just as getting away with operating components far beyond their maximum
ratings for years, then getting a batch that works only slightly beyond
their maximum ratings, there was never any guarantee to these stations
that they could operate beyond their protected contour forever.

You've gotten that perfectly right. A scam right from the start.
Luckily, IBOC has been a failure, as far as consumers are concerned,
and only 150 FM-HD stations have expressed interest in raising power
(only 3 have gone full -10db). So, the vaunted power increase has been
a complete flop. At least now, Struble/iBiquity and the automakers are
under investigation, and I hope that Struble is eventually prosecuted
for criminal fraud. The law firms will at least get him on civil
fraud. Expect class-actions from consumers and broadcasters. I'm sure
many radio listeners have abandoned listening, as IBOC slowly destroys
our airwaves. Listeners will just turn elsewhere for entertainment. I
hope that the corrupt FCC, NPR, and NAB get dragged into the
investigations.

"The Hash/Buzz" When You Are Turned To A Radio
Station You Want To Hear KCBS-AM @ 740 kHz

It's a mistake to call it "a case." Apparently what happened is _one_
lawyer, with a BMW, was amazed and upset that he could not tune in all
the HD Radio stations that were supposed to be broadcasting in his area,
and decided to get some free publicity with an "investigation" that has
gone nowhere. It's like you or I launching an "investigation" because we
can't tune in KKUP or some other low power station. No doubt Toyota did
due diligence before launching all components of Entunes, and found
there was no there there in the noise from this personal injury attorney.

Wow! CEO of a little flea powered station....getting up there in the world

And we know how smart HE is, don't we?
Smart enough to invest in a daytimer in Avon NY!
Smart enough to invest in a crazy directional upgrade on AM RADIO!
