	Clarence, no your post is NOT self-explanatory.

Several others on this list have stated the same request:

-Are you receiving interference from an FM IBOC station,
  lowering coverage from what you had before?


	I have helped a few LPFM people, and they were 
exceptionally naive as to what the true cost of running the 
station is. If you cannot raise support for it, well, that 
is the way it goes. Natural law applies. If there are unfair 
market forces in place, then step forward and explain.

	Clarence, on this board, everyone gets to have a platform 
to make a statement. However, if anyone does make a 
statement, engineering or programming or anything else 
broadcast related, they can and should expect others to 
chime in. Well, I'm chiming, and you are refusing to answer 
some simple questions. As such, the flurry of activity of 
your post will calm down within a few days, and life for the 
rest of us will move forward.

	In the meantime, there is a tremendous amount of free and 
very good advice available here on this board. One of the 
main reasons Barry runs it. I've been in this business for 
over three decades, and I've turned to this board/forum for 
help.

	Would you be willing to explain a bit more about how you 
perceive your LPFM as to why it is not living up to 
expectations?

	And I do not work for a corporate broadcaster.
