[EAS] DASDEC Version 3

[Clay Freinwald]

Eventually economic reality takes its toll and so will it be with the folks
in this discussion.   Likely quite a few LPFM's will go away as the newness
wears off and the financial aspects are learned.   With no sources of
income, the picture is not that rosy.   Look at AM Radio - The station
totals are now down to 80's level.    I suspect that in a few years we will
see the number of AM's shrink back to levels similar to decades before.
All of this despite the FCC's attempts.   In this society money talks and
the lack of it often speaks the loudest.

I think this is a problem with broadcast in general. People want to be in
the business but can't afford to do it properly. That problem covers every
discipline in this business. At one time long ago there was a means test
IIRC.
