Soul 106.3: Sounds Like %#@$%^

What kind of sound is Soul 106.3 going for...processing wise?

Has anybody heard this station lately? I listened for a bit this afternoon.
What in HELL are they doing??? Does the head engineer have water in his ears??

It is unlistenable!!

Maybe that's Crawford's plan to get people to buy IBOC recievers and listen to their HD signals.

Although I think IBOC is junk...if every station sounded that bad I might go out and buy an HD Radio myself!

Which Soul are you catching SRB or YRB??? I posted the same question on the IL board about YRB... The audio sounds like they are using 30 year old reel to reel tapes where the tape heads have never been cleaned... The audio is just outright bad... I have heard other FM's running IBOC and for the most part they sound fine, but whatever reason atleast for WYRB their audio is very muddy, way to much low end and no highs what so ever... CC

I live in WSRB's primary contour and it sounds horrible. Power 92 is the same way. I wouldn't be surprised if some of their equipment at their Hammond Indiana studios is old. Their building looks like it's cramped to me.
