Every couple of decades, the FCC decides it’s time to do something about the state of AM radio. This is one of those times, and today’s the deadline for comments in the Commission’s Proceeding #13-249, the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking on AM Improvement.
If you have strong opinions about the state of AM radio – and we do! – you can’t complain if you don’t speak out when the opportunity presents itself. NERW editor Scott Fybush’s comments are presented below (they’re purely my own). Agree? Disagree? Comment below, come talk about it on the RadioInsight Community. and let the FCC know, too! Here’s an express link to file comments on 13-249, and because of the storm that’s shut down the FCC today, it’s a pretty good bet comments will end up being accepted through the end of the day on Wednesday.
