At least in the States, AM & FM broadcasting is limited to 50 Hz to 15KHz.


AM is restricted by the NRSC standard to a 10 kHz brick wall.



Digital broadcasting is limited to under 20 Hz to over 20KHz, or
basically, the extent of the normal human hearing range.


If you're listening to 100 to 6,000 Hz, you're listening to a poor
telephone connection.


Bob Orban, on the NRSC committee, found that consumer radios almost without
exception, rolled off by at least 10 db by 4.2 kHz, and passed practically
nothing over 5 kHz.


Bob Orban is the alien from the late Weekly World News.

god darn it, we've had EVERY TROLL in the group except the K-Man, the
Scott Lifshine/Wereo entity, and the RRAP brigade in this thread!

Morein/McCarty/66.6% of the world's asshole postings has chimed in
even.

I predict the world will simply implode and then go back to whatever
it was doing beforehand.
