Not so in the markets where I normally listen. In the metro areas of both the Washington, DC, and Albuquerque, NM, more than half the stations I listen to (including university stations) have one or two HD channels. (Not statistically meaningful -- perhaps I'm just more aware of it now that my car has HD.) This is the reason I need to acquire a tuner that can work around it, if not receive it. -- Clark2
