HD RADIO FAILS TEST
According to reliable sources, a test, reported to Radio Shack, of their
Accurian Tabletop HD radio, failed to pick up a single HD Radio station reliably, anywhere indoors. HD reception totally failed in spite of using the extra supplied antennas, and with 17 HD radio stations nearby. Most stations broadcasting towers were so close as to be plainly visible from outside the test location. A second Accurian HD radio was tried, with similar results.
The normal (non-HD) AM and FM signals from all 17 stations were picked up crystal clear indoors, even without the extra antennas.
The building was a typical single story cinder block structure.

2010-INTERNET BEATS BROADCAST RADIO!
According to:
http://www.bridgeratings.com/press_071906-digitalprojectionsupdwradio.htm
All forms of Internet Radio's total cume, incuding cell streaming from the internet, and podcasting by 2010 will equal:
Internet Radio 187.33 million
Wireless Internet 159.23 million
Mobile Phone Streaming (from internet) 11.81 million
Podcasting 3.95 million
TOTAL INTERNET CUME in 2010 = 362.32 million
While the terrestrial broadcast radio total cume is projected to be only: 278.59 million.
Internet cume beating terrestrial cume by 83.73 million by 2010.
That is only about 3 years from now!
HD Radio will only be at a miserable 8.84 million cume. Not enough to sustain thousands of HD stations. Evidence that HD Radio is just another dead end system, similar to several others that have gone before, and disappeared.
