[BC] Wow, I wonder if y ou feel the same way about AM?

Jeff, in the fully spaced FM world YOU live in that might well be true-but
here in the REAL world we have FULL class B non-directional stations on
adjacent channels that are spaced 30-50 miles apart. We have class As on
second adjacents in the same market-with 100% city grade overlaps. We have
full class Bs on third adjacents in the same market-again with 100% city grade
overlap. No, these stations are NOT co-located either!

THIS is the REAL world, Jeff-not some perfectly spaced place like Vegas or a
coax cable in a lab. IBOC does not work in MY real world, Jeff. Not at all! It
TRASHES my real world!
