Noticed this morning that both the 95.7 and 100.3 signals now have the IBOC sidebands present, indicating they've lauched their HD signals. Not present yesterday (and since Senior Road went back online) so the switchover must have been in the early hours of Sunday. KHJZ was also off the air for a short while around 6pm Saturday so I figured something might be about to happen.
Oddly, the analog main channel on both stations now sounds somewhat muffled, with a loss of high frequency detail, and a little heavier bass. This is the opposite of what I've heard on the other stations that have launched IBOC, where the high and mid-ranges tend to have more detail, while there's a little less emphasis on the bass.
Perhaps someone with a HD multicast receiver can give us an update on whether the HD2 streams on the stations are up and running...95.7 is supposed to have traditional jazz, while 100.3 goes with something called "Future Country."
