Tools for installing and maintaining an HD Radio system
Ibiquity continues to develop the tools and resources available to stations adopting HD Radio technology. They recently released four white papers that cover networking assessments for HD Radio, which provide useful information to stations making the HD Radio transition.
Who was first?
Simply asking "who was first?" doesn't always yield the correct answer. The truth is that KDKA and Marconi just marketed themselves better than the others.
HD Radio Hits 1,000 Station Mark
WIYY-FM 97.9 (98 Rock) in Baltimore carries the official distinction of being the 1,000th station to broadcast with HD Radio technology.
Brazil Engineers Attend Broadcast Electronics HD Radio Boot Camp
Four of Brazil's top broadcast engineers attended a training course on HD Radio sponsored by Broadcast Electronics. The engineers returned to Brazil certified to provide factory support of BE's digital RF technology after the three-day training on digital signal implementation, maintenance and troubleshooting.
Ibiquity Offers HD Radio Rebate Program
A new HD Radio holiday rebate program from Ibiquity will provide as much as a $50 rebate on certain HD Radio receivers.
What do consumers know?
It is encouraging to hear that more receivers are becoming available, although many of them will not be ready for the upcoming holiday season.
Continental Lensa Signs HD Radio License Agreement
Continental Lensa is the first licensed HD Radio broadcast equipment manufacturer outside of North America.
Ibiquity Offers Promotional Radios to Stations
HD Radio broadcasters across the country will begin new promotions this winter by giving away thousands of new radios.
Colorado Symphony Orchestra Opens Season with Live 5.1 Surround Sound Broadcast
KVOD, Denver, will broadcast the Colorado Symphony Orchestra's 2006-2007 Masterworks season opening program on Sept. 16 in 5.1 surround sound, using Neural Audio's 5.1 technology for analog and HD Radio.
Radio One Taps Harris For HD Radio Again
Radio One will install Harris transmitters at 18 stations (17 FM and one AM) through the end of the year.
A report card on HD Radio
The last time I conducted my field study on HD Radio in the stores was in the August 2005 issue. Unfortunately, not much has changed.
The task of going digital
Is it possible to install HD Radio with a multicast signal in just 45 days?
Sample and Hold
While the two satellite radio providers are expected to draw 15 million listeners by the end of 2007, HD Radio is not expected to exceed that number until sometime after 2010.
Field Report: Audio Design Associates HD-Pro
Radio stations finally have an HD Radio monitor that can be mounted in a rack to interface with the professional equipment within a radio station.
Open Mic: Denny Sanders
A discussion of the surround sound system being implemented a WZLX, Boston, with Denny Sanders.
The next step in HD Radio
A year ago the coming killer app for HD Radio was going to be surround--but not much has happened on that front. However, HD Radio multicast has come into it's own since then.
Transmission precorrection
One of the great ironies in broadcast engineering is that we all grew accustomed to generating large of amounts of linearly modulated RF with amplifiers
More to digital radio
Digital radio isn't limited to IBOC and HD Radio. Satellite and Internet radio are part of it too, but there is still more to digital radio.
Insight to IBOC 7 - May 2006
Part of the Radio magazine DAB Answer Series, the seventh installment of this recurring supplement provides a primer on the HD Radio system, which includes an overview of the components within. It also details the NPR Labs reception test of the Boston Acoustics Recepter HD radio receiver, and an interview with Gary Kline, the chairman of the HD Digital Radio Alliance Engineering Cooperative.
The HD Radio System
If you are relative newcomer to Ibiquity's HD Radio technology, it is easy to become overwhelmed by the alien hardware topology and a long list of acronyms.
Open Mic: Gary Kline
At the end of January, the HD Digital Radio Alliance formed the Engineering Cooperative to assist the engineering community within the group's partners
Better Recepter reception
In February, NPR Labs studied reports of reception difficulties with the Boston Acoustics Recepter HD Radio receiver.
A quick recap of NAB2006
Here are some of the prevailing ideas and themes from NAB2006.
Sample and Hold
A study explores the potential revenue streams of HD Radio.
Field Report: Day Sequerra M2.0
Being able to go back and forth easily between different HD Radio streams is educational in terms of processing--and being able to quickly study your competition's HD Radio audio, now that's what radio engineering is all about.
