Everyone - I hope you realize that the main motive behind HD Radio/IBOC is to jam the smaller competitors off the dial (community-based radio), with adjacent-channel interference. iBiquity and the HD Radio Alliance owned stations are attempting to hijack our public airways through this jamming scheme and through confiscatory licensing and on-going percentage fees. HD Radio/IBOC is going to decimate the smaller broadcasters. HD Radio - a high-level corporate scam and huge carney-shill:
"Corporate Hijacking of Our Public Airways"

With the new RadioGuard, which iBiquity is seeking FCC approval, all current HD radios may become obsolete, as the first-generation HD radios became without multicasting. This scheme demands comtinued HD radio purchases, and with the proposed 10db FM-HD power increase, will require current repalcement of HD Radio hardware by broadcasters. This scheme only benefits iBiquity and the HD Radio hardware manufacturers. If you buy HD radios, then you are supporting this disaster.
