Tirade? I think not. Reading his comments objectively, his writing is not logical in my opinion and some of the wording sounds a bit over the top for a serious filing.
Oh, it's a serious filing alright. But he is, after all, a rather eccentric fellow even if he is very bright.
If such an emergency occurs where running an IBOC exciter can cause the death of people then it can easily be turned off. What is the big deal here?
Ok. The important points are still lost on you because you're not listening to what I'm saying but rather focusing on the over-the-top stuff he writes in his filings. May I suggest to you not to focus on IBOC exciters causing the death of people or any other clearly over-the-top statement he makes but rather focus on the parts of his filings that actually make sense and sound sane?
I mean if we want the best method of transmission when all else fails we still have CW. WHen I was active my top speed was between 35 and 40 wpm. Maybe everyone should learn CW just in case.
What a splendid idea! I will get out my old code practice tapes and start copying CW again. Someday maybe I can get up to that speed just like you did when you were at the top of your game!![]()
Great, maybe that wil give me the incentive to take out the bencher key and the Heat Umatic keyer again. The FCC isn't going to read his comments and say, this should be discounted but that part is important. He did mention his personal financial losses because of IBOC acceptance. The whole industry conspiracy issue to blacklist his products is rediculous. I did see a powerside and a Symmetra-peak on the shelve at the WMCA transmitter site. They must be part of the conspiracy also. Of course they don't run IBOC either. I believe he failed to mention that both of these technologies don't always work as well as the manufacturer claims.

If he had backed off when C-Quam became the AM stereo standard there wouldn't be all this resentment against his self serving posts now. Blacklisted, prove it.
