I think I know why Radio's dying

In West Milford I never get any NYC station in static they come in crystal clear in stereo. I don't understand why HD won't come in clear

With regard to the previous post by Badjef, I believe an HD signal running 600 watts would provide reception that is comparable to the 6000 watt analogue signal in most areas, but would still be subject to some dropouts in very hilly areas.

I don't think that is the case. It would be a conclusion you can draw as a result of the line of sight characteristic, though. Over and above that, I don't think that the 600 watts in Digital is equivalent to the 6kw of a typical Empire analogue signal as evidenced by WQXR's 600 watt signal travels much farther than the digitals from Empire even though I don't think any of them are running 600 watts in digital.

We have digitals running the 10%, they do not have hear the travel of the analogues of an equivalent power, as you suggest.

Jeff in Sa-ra-so-ta!
