[BC] Should Skywave Listening protection continue?

[Bill Harms]

This is from article appearing at http://www.rwonline.com/reference-room/special-
report/06_rw_oninionjuly1.shtml

"Those who want to improve their AM signals with IBOC believe that protecting 
skywave listening is not as important now as it was years ago, when far fewer 
stations existed and rural areas in particular were underserved by media."

Question for debate: Is IBOC worth the sacrifice of skywave listening because 
skywave listening is no longer as important as it was in the past?
