We simply do a legal and add HD or HD2 to the end.....ie. WWPR HD New York or WWPR HD2 New York.

Hope that helps.

Subject: [SBE] Question about Radio Station ID for HD services --


Hello everyone !

I'm writing an article for a broadcast technical web site about station identifications.

Sounds simple and boring.

Turns out it's not simple!

And it's sure not boring!!

Could I please learn how/if anyone's identifying their HD signals?

FCC 73.1201 (2) (b) says in part. . .

"A radio station operating in DAB hybrid mode or extended hybrid mode
shall identify its digital signal, including any free multicast audio
programming streams, in a manner that appropriately alerts its audience
to the fact that it is listening to a digital audio broadcast. No other
insertion between the station's call letters and the community or
communities specified in its license is permissible."

I'd love to incorporate, anonymously if you like, examples of "what's happening" across the country.

Thanks !
