I have said for several months even as far back as last year that radio will remain king in media over TV, for some very good reasons. Radio by and large is not fussy. A good radio in your home will work, and for the most part flawlessly even though TV has switched to digital, leaving many frustrated the fact is radio is still available through analog signals. Yes there is HD AM radio in major markets, KSL out of Salt Lake City has two sideband signals aka HD Radio. But I don't think you'll see HD radio in Idaho for a very long time. I could be wrong, but I have not seen or ah heard of any. TV is complicated. Don't get me wrong here, I still like my TV, but here lately even though the LPTV Translator station in Twin Falls that rebroadcasts KTVB, out of Boise, has some serious flaws, one being lack of a good engineer, and Boise's support, is mill. Be that as it may. Radio is much more personal, after all you can't take your TV to bed with you and hear it under your pillow, but you can your radio. You really cain't take your TV to the shower, but you can take a waterproof Radio there, and of course watching TV while driving is really a no brainer, yes I know some people do, but that's nearly as bad if not worse than using your cell phone especially texting while driving. But that's getting off course here. The fact is Radio was the mass media at the start, continues today, and most likely will be around into the next half dozen centuries. Like this morning was all head up to watch KTVB's View-point show to see what lies would be told about this health care debate. Guess what after SNL last night KTFT-38 the local translator here puked. Meaning no View-Point. Or Meet the Press. Oh by the way watch Meet The Press next month, a thing on the CSA/CNP is being planned. Will be interesting. But as I rested overnight, I had an idea, I wonder if those folks at Hayden Lake Idaho, need some help. If so bro's email me I'm ready to make the move.
