Thats is the first time I have heard anyone say they want analog to go
away.  I have never heard that from the FCC either.  No one is forcing
anyone to go IBOC.

I have talked to the WLAC people in the past.  They seem reasonable.  Have
you contacted them?  I no longer work for CC, but Steve Davis seems truly
interested in being able to handle situations where they arrise.

You still havent answered whether it is in or out of the protected contour.
Still 5th adjacent????
