What Channels Are the FCC Trying To Reclaim

Problem with any radio move is "would there be compatibility kits for cars?"

I'm sure there would be, although a car is an unlikely place to listen to a low-power radio station with limited range. But if we're talking about LPFM, we're basically just widening the existing FM band.

Digital radio is a little harder, but there are already HD Radio kits available. They work much like a DTV converter box for an old analog TV.

If an open standard like DRM were used in the new band instead of the proprietary HD Radio standard, the kits would be reasonably cheap as well.

I remember those FM converters from the late 60'and the 70's which converts FM to AM 1400khz on AM.
