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

[Broadcast List USER]

I forgot to mention, yes I know.

However, it was brought on by the audio processing at the stations.

The stations kept turning up the high end, causing more interference,  
and sibilance.  The receiver manufacturers, especially car radio  
manufactures kept rolling off the high end in response.

Auto manufacturers don't want cars coming back for radio complaints.   
So, they kept rolling off the highs to ensure that wouldn't happen.   
That made AM stations pump up the high end even more.

No offense intended to Bob, who I greatly respect, but do you recall  
the "car radio emulating filter" that came with the 9100?  WOW!
