[IRCA] KRKO in digital mode
KRKO-1380 is running its digital test broadcast. I don't know when it started but I first noticed it a few minutes before 11 pm Pacific time. The signal occupies exactly +/- 10 kHz bandwidth. The +/- 5kHz portion is about 15 dB stronger than the part that's 5-10kHz above and below 1380. 1370 is free of interference on the lower sideband, as is 1390 on the upper sideband. I don't have a compatible receiver, so I can't comment on how it sounds.

Re: [IRCA] KRKO in digital mode
Thanks Bruce. I got it. Lots of HD hash on 1380, but clear on 1390 (1370 is on KAST) on the R8. However, I am getting an open carrier on the Sony HD receiver. on 1380 Using the NE EWE. The logo claims to be locked on, and there is just silence. So I do not know if I am not getting audio or if KRKO has an open carrier. I just got the Logo KRKO and bits of bursts of audio, but it comes and goes. The locked in HD is always present. I never lose that, but not strong enough most of the time to produce audio. Now if I had a 1,000 foot beverage aimed at Seattle, maybe. I do think if KSL tests with sold HD, I will get it without any issue. KRKO is just not strong enough. KKXA will even be weaker I am sure, unless KGDD goes off.

Re: [IRCA] KRKO in digital mode
The signal went away at 12:15 AM (PDT), no HD logo, just hash. So I do not know what is going on. But I was getting bits of the HD audio at times. But here a solid HD signal on KRKO is not useable, However, the analog is fine off the NE EWE.

Re: [IRCA] KRKO in digital mode
The carrier is back. It just locked again at 12:18 AM but no audio. The HD logo is popping on and off, so it is not strong enough to produce audio. HD Radio is like HD TV, either you get it or you do not. I guess if the stations end up going to digital, then they will mostly cover their metro area. I am trying to get some audio, if possible, but it is tough. Don't know what pattern KRKO is using.

Re: [IRCA] KRKO in digital mode
I lost the lock again. The signal is really down now. It was much better at the beginning. Maybe they are adjusting the power levels or pattern. But it is not as good as it once was.

The noise in analog is very strong. In fact, it is hard to hear Ontario OR, so if stations decide to go all digital and there are a lot of them, I agree. AM DXing be a thin k of the past.
