Thanks & 73!

I notice it myself up in the area of 93 and 495. The blanketing effect from WCRB's HD makes almost it impossible to hear WPLM/99.1 and even WHEB/100.3. But as soon as you go across the MA/NH border, both PLM and HEB come back just fine. It's a pain.Eli Polonsky said:mgpt6 said:What happens at -20db below analog.

I really don't know for sure, but I wouldn't be surprised if WCRB 99.5 is running a higher HD level than most other stations. Unlike other FM HD stations, it seems to lock into HD even in areas where the analog is coming in very weak and/or distorted down here around Boston, and my car stereo gets HD "hash" over a large portion of the dial on either side of them when on Rte. 93/Rte. 495 near their transmitter in N. Andover.
