"Do you get any distant FM IBOC? I cannot detect any FM IBOC hash here on the Oregon coast from either Portland or Seattle stations, so I wonder if I woul get any FM IBOC out here."
Hi, Patrick. In this neck of the woods (northern New England) the major IBOC players are the NPR stations. Vermont is doing a good job of getting IBOC online on FM although the gentle art of actually streaming the title of what you're listening to seems to be a little beyond their ability to figure out. Which would be nice if they did, seeing as IBOC mainly carries their classical service. I suspect (because of the behavior of the work truck's "scan" function) that there are a couple of stations in NH/VT that are carrying IBOC other than VPR (Vermont Public Radio) but I haven't yet tried to see if they're decodable at the home location. I do note that FM IBOC is far less obtrusive in terms of adjacent channel interference than it is on AM. Hm, mebbe when I get home in the morning I'll do a quick FM bandscan and see if anything shows up - I know AM will give me bupkis...
