then there's the engineers view too many engineers I talked to said that
IBOC after sun down was a bad idea and that's been borne out by real world
experience which is why you are starting to see stations turn off either the
upper or lower side band to avoid adjacent channel interference. IBOC on AM
was a bad idea and on FM it's not much better because you're not allowed to
modulate those IBOC carriers at more than 5 percent of total transmitter
power to avoid first and second adjacent interference issues. as well as
avoiding cross talk issues which would result from injecting those carriers
too close to the 38 kHz stereo pilot frequency. Over here in the UK they
are planning to totally phase out AM by 2015 they are not planning to do any
type of AM DAB over here but I am betting the 2015 date is going to be
pushed back.
