latest IBOC interference from Seattle

If not for the "very quiet" rule at the 73rd floor due to Metro Traffic, I'd probably bring an FM radio on the top of that skyscraper. Sure I could get Vancouver, Victoria and probably a few Portlands on that skyscraper. That's 1000 feet as it is. And my headphones are too dorky and big to take anywhere in public anyways...

You wanna see big and dorky cans? This is my set of Pickering headphones, circa 1973. Wearing these, I look like the unholy offspring of Princess Leia and Yoda. But I don't care what people think of my headphones. And neither should you about yours. When you get the chance, get up there and see what you can get. Cheers!

I used to walk around the streets of Tacoma at night alone with no real problems. Not to say I never had static, but the last kid who tried to jump me ended up a bit wobbly. And the gangs won't mess with you as long as you don't mess with them. The ones to really be afraid of down there are the homeless guys. They have nothing and therefore, nothing to lose and jail is actually an improvement in their situation....

Back to IBOC, when I was driving back from Seattle last week, I noticed there's now a kid's channel on KUBE-HD2.
 
KFNQ IBOC back on. Maybe someone turns it off now and then by accident?

If this trend continues it will give local DXers a break from time to time, which is cool, but probably not so cool for KFNQ's HD listeners.

Which leads me to a question: is AM HD stereo?
