Hi Chuck, More robust? I'll grant that. But in the demonstrations done here, I didn't find the sound to be better. The same? Yes. Better, no. Unless those tests weren't done in a way that would show the potential of all-digital IBOC. -- Rick

The question is whether it is good enough to spark more interest and then more interest sparks more receivers. Or: the FCC does something to force the issue, an unlikely possibility given their lack of desire so far.
