[BC] Implementation

[Kent Winrich, K9EZ]

OK lets talk about a separate band.... Take a look at what other 
countries and what they are doing.

Canada...  The are running Eureka.  According to the engineers there, 
there is no real run to get Eureka.  In other words it is not 
successful.  No one seems to be interested.  So why implement that here?

In regards to TV....  it seems similar to what we are doing.  They 
have separate channels on the same band that still requires new 
hardware for the user.

It is not a matter of being desperate, but trying new things to keep 
radio fresh.  I dont see a problem with that at all.  If we dont at 
least TRY this, we sit back on our duffs doing nothing watching the 
world go by.

Is HD Radio prefect?  Nope.  Why not at least try it?  Dana do you 
have first hand experience with this technology?  Have you worked 
with it?  Do you have an HD receiver?

It sounds like I am being a cheerleader for HD Radio.  The only 
reason is that it is the technology that is being presented.  I need 
to be able to at least try to work with it.
