[BC] IBOC power Increase For FM stations

[Barry Mishkind]

Warren,

I agree with you. While the IBOCers are struggling to fine some way 
to overcome the inconsistent coverage, it is a shame that we are 
seeing the promotion of MAD as a solution (and you thought that was 
only good in war!). There must be a better way.

Of course, one of the major issues appears to be a lack of opposing 
opinion at the FCC. Has the new Chairman indicated his preferences here?
