And how is this test going to show that people in Idaho or North Dakota will know about it? The FCC should be doing a nationwide test.

Re: Nationwide

Because most have already gotten Satellite, or really do not care. Even those with Government Aid checks have CATV or Satellite, so what difference will it make.

Re: Nationwide

By doing it nationwide it will at least clue people in that have no clue what is going on. Or are unsure about the whole "will your TV work this winter" ads

I think you'll find that with over 300 Million people in the USA, there are plenty of folks who don't have cable or satellite. I had cable and it sucked with all the drop-outs, tiling, and audio/video sync problems. I prefer dealing with fringe reception.

I do have my two coupons and plan on using them when I find a retailer that carries the unit I want (8-day EPG, Pass-Through, and Smart Antenna at a minimum). Same with my In-Laws.

Do you think this will be the ONLY test? By the way Idaho and ND only have a combined 900,000 households
