Thans mate, it doesn’t take long for word to spread haha  
Yeah it certainly is in AM Stereo, first time it has been in Stereo as-well… I can’t take all the credit it was a team effort between myself, Paul Batchelor (4WK Manager) and Andrew Chapman… BE AM Stereo Board, some test gear and a bit of time and WHAM back in stereo

I wish, but only so much AM Stereo gear still floating around the traps now days, so for now one or two in stereo should be enough to make people happy 🙂

There is still quite a lot of AM Stereo Radios still floating around from the 80/90s… Also some imports particularly from the US where HD radio is used also have the ability to decode C-QUAM due to some chips that decode IBOC also decode C-QUAM…  
Myself I own 2x Sony JX-220A… But i am a geek of course 🙂

You heard right so watch this space 😉

> Over seas digital radios with chipsets for HD Radio & DRM also do AM Stereo (as that’s an option with the transmitters), because of that, quite a few AM stations in the USA have recently turned AM Stereo back on.

Yeah I believe that is because when IBOC is used it limits the audio bandwidth on the analog component to 5k, so been that most HD Radios do C-QUAM, 10k AM Stereo sounds much better then badly digitally compressed audio… I love the idea of turning C-QUAM back on as when it is setup right, it can almost sounds as good as FM on a decent wide-band receiver
