[BC] WABC Going IBOC

[Tom Dimeo]

This morning while scanning the AM dial I tuned across WABC 
and they were discussing that next year WABC will start 
transmitting in digital.  There seemed to be the implication 
that the station would be heard further away and in buildings 
where it now can not be heard.

The comment was made that WABC sounds very good in analog and 
it will sound even better in digital.  There was no mention 
that when they transmit digital the sound of the analog will 
decrease.

Wonder what WABC's IBOC will do to the coverage of WAEB 790 
Allentown.
