Well, I hate to see honest, well-intentioned people lose an investment in
any endeavour, but I have a feeling we're going to see more of it here.

I opposed LPFM, and filed comments stating as much.  The Commission went 
ahead with it anyway, and now we may be seeing the results.  Assuming that
there are really real, non-IBOC issues involved with the station that started
this thread, it may only be the first of many.  Schools are learning that 
there's a lot involved, and the hobbyists may be getting a little tired.

Maybe a previous Commission wasn't so wrong after all, when they required 
all of the 10-watt FM's to upgrade or go silent...
