Additional Features

I'm curious why exactly the HD Radio Emergency Alerts functionality isn't implemented. If you need help with figuring out how encoders communicate with it, I can provide a virtualized DASDEC in a VM for testing purposes for interfacing with it.

In terms of other HD Radio features that aren't currently implemented, I noticed in the Dallas/Fort-Worth (DFW) market that there are a few HD stations that have different slogans for each subchannel, something that would be awesome to have the ability to do with gr-nrsc5. However, I don't think even nrsc5 supports decoding separate slogans per subchannel, as I haven't seen it implemented. The main issue is since the tuner I have access to is a Ionovonics HD tuner, and not an actual SDR, I can't record a Baseband IQ file of the stations with separate slogans per HD channel for reverse engineering purposes.

Also HD Radio traffic and weather isn't implemented, this is something that might potentially be easy to implement, and I can provide IQ files with this information transmitted, and it is already supported for decoding in nrsc5.

I've had no issues with it since the most recent update.
