>>Unless, of course, it is the
         Mom and Pop station in the
         rurals; perhaps the only
         station in the county.

The "mom and pop's" I have come across out in the "sticks" are doing just
fine without IBOC.  Funny thing, once you get outside the "big city",
stations seem to be more concerned about what's going on in their
communities.  They offer more news and local programming.  People listen.
Stations make (a little) money.  And they are doing it without IBOC.
There's a lesson to learn in there somewhere.  The corporates and
manufactures are whipping up everyone in to a frenzy over IBOC, but the
smaller stations keep chugging along with their 30 year old transmitters and
20 year old studios.
