[HCDX] IBOC Train Wreck on 1090

["Bill Harms" <wharms@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The IBOC train wreck has happened. WBAL is being bothered by IBOC 
interference from a station on 1080 at 0145-0200 EDT 7/27/2006. I am 
not sure who on 1080 is running the IBOC, but I suspect WTIC because 
they are the strongest on the channel and it sounds like they are 
doing some testing. I am within WBAL's local coverage area at night. 
1070 is virtually wiped out.  

Here is a clip.  At the beginning I tuned to 1080 and 1070 to see 
what was going on on those channels.  The station running IBOC was 
turning it off and on, and I was trying to adjust my antenna setup to 
get rid of it, so the intensity of the sound changed a couple of 
times.
