I have to admit Bob is right on this.  There may be some genuine technical 
concerns about LPFM, but the NAB's concerns are only business related.  It is 
a common tactic for an interest group to come up with a plausible sounding 
argument that they will work well publicly because arguing your own business 
interest would not look good.  I know, it's what I do for a living.

I have no problem with the concept of LPFM, but it seems that the FCC's 
proposal is so limited that it will result in very few stations being 
licensed.
