You've learned well from Supercaster. Now that you've run out of real facts, simply lie.

You're doing a good job with that! You've lost the battle, so you just simply quote meaningless Amazon statistics all day, and hope nobody catches you making stuff up.

It's OK to admit that you've run out of arguments. We'll go easy on you!

Couldn't you have responded with something more original ? Amazon statistics are quite relevant, especially since the HD Radio Cartel is heavily advertising this HD radio directly and there is no consumer interest:

What, somebody tells you the truth, and you don't like it, so you just repeat the lie?

They are not pushing the Receptor. They are advertising several radios, and HD radio in general.

Just like the 7-foot dipole. You just keep repeating the same lie over and over, hoping that someday it will become true. :D
 
The HD Radio Cartel is specifically advertising for Amazon.com/hdradio, which has a link to only the Receptor HD radio.

That's only one of several spots they're running. But again, you seem to have selective memory, so I can see how you'd forget to mention that.
 
Again, the HD Radio Cartel's main thrust is on Amazon.com/hdradio, which links to the Receptor HD - that is the only HD radio that I have heard advertised, and is the main focus of MArk Ramsey and some other blogs that I have quoted - you simply, do not want to admit that the Cartel has a major marketing problem, so you run around with words, as David taught you.

You have a problem with the truth, as SUPERCASTER has taught you. The main thrust IS NOT the Receptor. Sure they mention it, simply because it's one of few HD radios made right now, but it is not the focus. They are rotating spots mentioning other radios, and Amazon and Crutchfield.

Knowledge is power. ;D
 
No, their main focus is the Receptor HD on Amazom.com/hdradio - that is their main advertising focus, and the radio is not selling, just like the other HD radios will not sell - there is not public interest.

I was right. You're just going to repeat the same lie instead of admitting the truth.

OK, go ahead. Can't argue with that "logic". Doens't work on a six-year-old when she covers her ears and yells "NANANANANAICAN'THEARYOUNANANANA" so I'm sure it wont work with you.

I can't imagine, what you are getting so excitied about, especially after having made a fool of yourself today, and after your eulogy, a while back, pleading for support for IBOC and swearing that you would never return to this board (then you came back the next day, as we all knew you would). You have spent $600 on two Receptor HD radios, and had to hide your 7-foot dipole antennas, when Amazon has them on sale for $240. You seem to believe, that you are winning the IBOC battle here, but the sales rankings on Amazon for all the HD radios, clearly indicates that there is no consumer interest in HD Radio. People on rec.radio.shortwave are educated and have shunned IBOC, for what it is - a flawed and fraudulent, "technology", if one can even call it that. The BIG HD Radio rollout has been a complete flop, and only BMW is putting it in it's expensive 7-series, only because it is included with its GPS system. Radio Shack is the only retailer that has expressed interest in HD Radio and they are having serious financial problems (closed hundreds of stores and just laid off 500 employees). Obviously, you have a direct interest in the success of IBOC, since you install IBOC systems; I only want it to fail, because it is corrupting the AM/FM bands. And again, here is the 7-foot dipole antenna (obvioulsy, since I could only receive two FM stations in Best Buy, it needs a dipole antenna inside of structures).

"Recepter Gets Another Antenna"

http://www.rwonline.com/reference-room/iboc/2006.05.10-02_rw_hd_recepter_antenna_3.shtml

From CCrane's Receptor HD:

"Note: The HD radio signal is only available within approximately 100 miles of HD broadcasts, but it will still pick up standard (analog) AM/FM signals as normal when the HD signal is out of range. You can be assured Crane is working on developing an antenna to increase this range."
 
This is nuts. No station that I know of sells for an audience 100 miles away from the transmitter. Listeners at that distance are a very select and specialized group and you don't build a business around those people. You'd go out of business in a month.
 
Well, take it up with CCrane - I am sure, they know a bit more about radios, than you do.

And you know nothing about them!
 
CCrane known nothing about radio station sales or operations
 
Because they are retailers not broadcasters. It would be like asking a supermarket manager what the costs and proccesses for manufacturing canned goods are.
