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!
