Let's do a simple math lesson...
First, let's assume that there are 1200 IBUZ installs at an average of $25K
each.
Next, let's assume that the average broadcast engineer makes $50K per year.
Finally, let's assume that there are 10K radios in listeners' hands (likely a
very generous estimate).
This means the following:
1200 times 25,000 = 30,000,000 = Thirty million dollars invested in IBOC
30,000,000 divided by 10,000 = 3,000 = Three thousand dollars invested PER
IBOC LISTENER!
30,000,000 divided by 50,000 = 600 = SIX HUNDRED engineering jobs ELIMINATED
BT IBOC!
Numbers don't lie, folks!
