WASHINGTON, D.C., U.S.A., 1994 FEB 4 (NB)
Following up on an
idea by former Apple Computer chairman John Sculley, the National
Association of Broadcasters is now seeking the right to broadcast
data along with programming so its members can become part of the
Information Superhighway.

In his keynote to last year's NAB show, Sculley suggested that
the group use the 6 MHz of new frequency they're getting for
High Definition TV for data broadcasting applications. Later, in
a magazine interview, interim FCC chairman James Quello, whose
own NAB speech had indicated there may be too many radio
stations, indicated interest in proposals to allow data
broadcasting by radio.
