The technical side of broadcasting. Think IBOC is a sham? Talk about it here! How about HDTV? Post DX reports here as well.

I have heard many tropo openings where most of the NOAA channels were occupied by signals from around MI, OH and ON. Never thought to log the times and callsigns though :(

I can't believe the NOAA station at 162.55 is still out of service in the NYC area.
