Chuck,
To put it simply as Lynn said sometime back, Play nice. As you can
tell, the subject IBOC is still being discussed. I cannot speak for
Lynn, but the way I feel is, if a subject can be discussed politely,
then I see no issue. Lynn I jump in when that changes.

He couldn't stand rude people, Agent Starling. Called 'em, 'free range
rude'.

Bob,
The only experience I have had with the 390A (none of the others), is
the one Bill Block has. I have had several boat anchors through the
years, the SP 600 JX17 was my last one, I bought from Hank Wilkinson in
the early 80s. Before that I had an old EH Scott (RBO2). Not a bad
receiver
Don,
970 Portland seems to run a bit of everything these days from Comedy,
talk, sports, etc. A bit odd for a big city station. In some ways,
closer to the old KOIN of the 50s/60s.
