Phil, I clearly said that according to this band migration plan, only
Class C and D stations would move to VHF.  Class A & B stations would
remain on the MW band, and would make use of the vacated space to spread
out and loosen their belts, so to speak.  So not only would 750 WSB be on
the air right where it has been for decades, it would probably be also
pumping out considerably greater than 50,000 watts.

We've all been "armchair quarterbacking" in these various IBOC-related
threads, including yourself, so my comments fall into the same exact
"What if...?" category as everyone else's.
