Why should they be? They milked this cow pretty good, I'd say, and laughed 
all the way to the bank.

Now, in a total change from my usual (and rightly deserved) IBUZ-bashing, 
check this out! I actually found a modest-sized AM station that is running IBUZ 
and they are actually having some marked success with the thing!

VERY interesting!

So far it looks like this station may be the exception as far as getting 
listeners interested. They have *Motivated* listeners who are willing to go "the 
extra mile" to hear this station's programming. They have also been doing an 
outstanding job of *Educating* their audience. They have helped to sell a number 
of the radios, probably a vastly greater percentage than in most other 
markets! (Especially if those markets' advertising campaigns consist of that useless 
"stations between the stations" drivel.)

According to a note from the station manager there, they are getting 
approximately equal IBUZ/Analog coverage. I wonder about the receivers in those cases.
