> Barry, you and Craig Healy are the only reports I know of > that have had any HD audio..
Mine was just a few seconds of WOR-710 (150 miles). Some time back WOWO-1190 left the IBOC on overnight. I had some paperwork, so I put the JVC in digital-only and let it sit. It was at least an hour, maybe two. Not a peep of audio. Same with WHAM-1180 when they left theirs on. Let it run for a long time, no HD digital audio at all. Local groundwave tests show half or less the radius of good-quality analog reception. No noise behind the analog. If WHJJ-920 is a 30+ mile analog signal, the HD is tapped out at under 15 miles. FM shows a similar half radius limit. What that means is that it takes a bootload of signal strength before HD can decode. Probably more than skywave can really deliver. I should try WTWP-1500 and WDCD-1540 at sunset. Those might be the best chance, though the adjacents to 1500 are problematic, and 1540 fades a lot as it's very close to here.
