Whatever.
I know that I have taken advantage of the broadcast industry, with the
attempted transition to HD Radio, but my greed has gotten in the way;
besides, Vicki is very high-maintenance. I realize that the
transition, or farce as some say, has pretty much stalled, especially
on AM, as some broadcasters want to renegotiate with iBiquity, and
many have turned off AM-HD. Also, I hope to convince, or some many say
scam, the FMs into pushing for the proposed 10db power increase, even
though NPR is against the power increase - some engineers even predict
another fiasco, as with AM-HD. The NAB and HD Alliance have worked
hard to pay off Kevin Martin, but now he is under investigation by
Chairman Dingell, of the House Commerce Committee - that damned Bob
Savage has submitted a bunch of material to Chairman Dingell, and has
even offered to testify in front of the Committee! By hook-or-crook,
I'll get my damn IPO off the ground, so I can retire comfortably,
where there are no reciprocity laws. I'm also sorry for misleading the
Public and the Press about all of the conversions to HD, as many of
these stations were NPR, and bilked Congress out of millions. Maybe, I
can conn Martin, or Congess, into mandating HD, even though there is
zero consumer interest, and many of the HD radios have been returned
as "defective". Don't worry that this flawed digital system simply
doesn't work, because I have magical persuasive powers that came with
my Harvard MBA.
