[BC] Modualtion Monitors (do we need them?)

[nakayle@gmail.com]

 Well I guess I'm just an old fogie but as a retired BC eng who has been out
of the biz a while I can't believe how lax the commission has become.  In my
day to operate without a freq and mod monitors was unthinkable.  In fact, I
usually had two- one to check the other.

   And while I'm at it, I can't tell you how much I hate modern day audio
processing.  It sounds like every station has a modulation range between
80-100%.   I have to listen to CDs to hear music with any realistic dynamic
range now a days.  Today's broadcasters don't understand that when you
compress the hell out of music it becomes bland and fatiguing.
