Here at WMUB, we're airing the BBC World Service on our HD-3.  It's 
"live" most of the time....not originating in our studios, but "live" enough.

We're running a jazz service on our HD-2, called JazzWorks.  It is 
not "live" by any stretch of the word but it's a unique service and 
otherwise-unheard programming most hours of the day.  We run both 
channels via AudioVault AVSat with breaks and liners.

By the way, if anyone is in West Central Ohio, between Dayton and 
Cincinnati over the holidays, we'd be interested in any reception 
reports.  With all the discussion of processing, I think our HD-2 
sound pretty darned good.  We're using an Optimod 8100 ( I 
believe.  If not, Jim Keen can correct me.)
