[Boatanchors] H.R. 7157

[Roscoe Primrose]

People should inform themselves before just passing things along. The 
ACTUAL text of the bill says:

"Require that apparatus shipped in interstate commerce or manufactured 
in the United States that is designed to receive signals broadcast in 
both the satellite digital audio radio service and the terrestrial AM or 
FM radio broadcast service be equipped with technology that is capable 
of receiving and playing digital radio signals as transmitted by 
terrestrial AM or FM stations.’’
