Well, I doubt that any Eureka-147 receivers will ever be type-accepted
for retail sale in the U.S.; even if the FCC would approve them, it's
not worth it to the manufacturers to even apply to sell a product that
only fifty people would ever buy.  It seems not impossible that, if
IBOC DAB is ever deployed and actually works (both physically and
economically), multi-standard receivers might be available for
exorbitant amounts of money in Canada.
