REC files comments in support of improvements to HD Radio
REC Networks has filed comments in MB Docket 22-405. The FCC requested comments on two Petitions for Rulemaking. One was filed by the National Association of Broadcasters and Xperi, the owner of the HD Radio technology to change the guidelines for digital effective radiated power (ERP) on stations running HD that are nearby other facilities on first-adjacent channels. The second petition was filed by NAB, Xperi and National Public Radio to request that the FCC normalize the use of "asynchronous sideband" operation by stations operating HD Radio.
