Mike got a first place in News Story - Division 2 for his story "Torrent Artifacts Recovered". He shared the News Feature - Division 2 award with Celeste Novak for their "Howard Hedges Obituary". Thanks, Mike... and Celeste. Way to go!

Hybrid Digital KBBI is on the Air
KBBI FM is still a dream in the planning stages,
but near-FM quality stereo broadcasts
on the AM dial are a reality now. Almost-FM KBBI can be heard
with an HD radio.
HD stands for "Hybrid Digital". You can still listen on your current
analog radios because the hybrid digital channel is combined into an
unused portion of the the 890AM signal. The analog signal is still
there, and the new HD receivers know how to decode the digital part of
the transmission and give you the new, improved channel.
In fact, KBBI's experimental live MP3
stream originates from an HD radio receiver. The real on-air
broadcast has much higher quality, but you'll get the idea.
We don’t have any particular recommendations on where to get an HD radio, but they are available from various sources, and we are seeing the prices come down. Like most new technology, the prices are generally high at first, but as demand goes up, the prices go down.
Reception is free, and there is no subscription cost. However, KBBI
is listener supported, and your contributions do make this service
possible. We'll mention this in the upcoming pledge drive on Friday,
October 3rd.
If you are curious about this new capability, please give the
station a call. 235-7721. We even have a working radio that you can
hear during regular business hours if you're really, really curious.
We're at 3913 Kachemak Way.
