One of the news stories say that the listeners with analog radios will hear 
only silence, but what is their definition of silence? It sounds like the IBOC 
hash will be worse on the channel, but not on adjacent channels? Time will 
tell. I am sure the DXers in the Puget Sound will report on what is heard. 
Here, KKXA 1520 is buried under KGDD days and mixes at night. KRKO is heard 
24/7. However, is poor days next to local KAST 1370, but decent at night.  
Thanks Chuck.
