  • Federal Communications Commission WASHINGTON, DC 20554
    BEFORE THE Federal Communications Commission WASHINGTON, DC 20554 In the Matter of ) ) All-Digital AM Broadcasting ) MB Docket No. 19-311 ) ) Revitalization of the AM Radio Service ) MB Docket No. 13-249 ) ) ) To: The Commission COMMENTS OF THE CRAWFORD BROADCASTING COMPANY Crawford Broadcasting Company (“Crawford”) and its affiliates are licensees of 15 AM commercial broadcast stations1, all but two of which currently operate in the hybrid analog/digital mode. As such, we have great interest in the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking to permit all AM stations to broadcast an all-digital signal using the HD Radio in-band on-channel (IBOC) mode known as MA3 on a voluntary basis (“Notice”), and we offer the following comments in support of this petition. I. Benefits of All-Digital AM Transmissions It has been well established for more than a decade of operation by many of our stations in the MA1 hybrid digital mode that AM stations stand to gain a great deal from digital operation. Greatly improved audio quality is at the forefront, with audio bandwidth comparable to FM broadcasts, stereo audio and receiver display of title/artist or program title information. When a receiver locks in the digital mode to one of our stations, particularly one playing music, as the receiver blends from analog to digital, the contrast is dramatic. The highs and lows of the audio open up, the stereo image widens out, and the noise that seems to be ever present on almost any AM frequency disappears. Listeners experiencing this effect for the first time are quite often amazed at how good an AM broadcast can sound in this mode.

Most analyses of public radio listening examine the performance of individual stations within this large mix, the contributions of specific national programs, or aggregate numbers for the system as a whole. This report takes a different approach. Through an extensive, multi-year study of 228 stations that generate about 80% of public radio’s audience, we review patterns of listening to groups of stations categorized by the formats that they present. We find that stations that pursue different format strategies – news, classical, jazz, AAA, and the principal combinations of these – have experienced significantly different patterns of audience growth in recent years and important differences in key audience behaviors such as loyalty and time spent listening. This quantitative study complements qualitative research that the Station Resource Group, in partnership with Public Radio Program Directors, and others have pursued on the values and benefits listeners perceive in different formats and format combinations. Key findings of The Public Radio Format Study include: • In a time of relentless news cycles and a near abandonment of news by many commercial stations, public radio’s news and information stations have seen a 55% increase in their average audience from Spring 1999 to Fall 2004.

  • Media Announcement
    MEDIA ANNOUNCEMENT FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE BAY AREA RADIO HALL OF FAME ANNOUNCES FIRST CLASS OF HONOREES San Francisco (October 4, 2006) — The Bay Area Radio Museum is proud to announce the first group of inductees into the Bay Area Radio Hall of Fame. The selections were made following a year of study during which input from broadcast professionals, fans and historians was weighed to establish criteria and nominees for enshrinement. Among the first inductees are pioneers from the earliest period of local radio development nearly a century ago, as well as popular personalities from the modern era. Many of the names, such as Don Sherwood and Tom Donahue, may be instantly recognizable. Others, such as Colin B. Kennedy and Harrison Holliway, may be less so. In either case, it is hoped that the creation of the Hall of Fame will help to honor the men and women who have made Bay Area radio so popular over the years, and will make their names and accomplishments known for generations to come. For the near future, the Bay Area Radio Hall of Fame will exist primarily on the Internet at www.barhof.com, although a permanent exhibit is planned at the old KRE radio studios in Berkeley, which are being refurbished by the California Historical Radio Society (CHRS). The Bay Area Radio Hall of Fame is spearheaded by the Bay Area Radio Museum, which is an affiliate of the Broadcast & Newspaper Museum of Northern California consortium, which also includes CHRS and the Broadcast Legends. The radio museum was founded in 2005, and currently presents archival broadcast recordings, photographs, documents and historical essays on its website at www.bayarearadio.org.

No.: 200932960003 Vallejo, California ) FRN: 0006133953 ASR No. 1023097 ) ) NOTICE OF APPARENT LIABILITY FOR FORFEITURE Released: April 9, 2009 By the District Director, San Francisco Office, Western Region, Enforcement Bureau: I. INTRODUCTION 1. In this Notice of Apparent Liability for Forfeiture ("NAL"), we find that Baybridge Communications, L.L.C. ("Baybridge"), registrant of antenna structure #1023097 near Vallejo, California, apparently repeatedly violated Section 303(q) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, ("Act"),1 and Section 17.51(a) of the Commission's Rules ("Rules")2 by failing to exhibit the structure’s red obstruction lighting from sunset to sunrise; and by failing to monitor the antenna structure’s lights, using a properly maintained indicator to register any failure of such lights, a violation of Section 17.47(a) of the Rules.3 Baybridge’s failure to make the required observations of the lighting on the antenna structure resulted in its failure to notify the nearest Flight Service Station of the Federal Aviation Administration (“FAA”) of the outage of the flashing obstruction lights, a violation of Section 17.48 of the Rules.4 We conclude, pursuant to Section 503(b) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended ("Act"),5 that Baybridge Communications, L.L.C. is apparently liable for forfeiture in the amount of eight thousand dollars ($8,000). II. BACKGROUND 2. Antenna structure #1023097 is an antenna tower of 70.4 meters (approximately 231 feet) in height above ground.
