You make a very astute observation, Mark.  If there might be problems running
'duck farts' through 128 kbps MPEG coding then how about the HD radio coding
that's 1/3 that bit rate. Or the coding on a digital TV SAP channel, or the
coding on an AM IBOC 32 kbps channel..or...or or...

Has anyone actually tested any of these?

(Mark Humphrey shrewdly observed)
So should we be concerned about decoding EAS transmissions from a
station using the HD codec at 48 kbps or less?   Have any tests been
run on this codec at the low rate used for AM IBOC to prove it is
still a reliable way to carry EAS FSK data?
