| DTV & HDTV I'm curious what, if any, stations are doing DTV but NOT HDTV.
My analog stations weren't the greatest. My digital stations are similar, but once the transition hits a more local transmitter goes live and 2 of my 5 stations should become perfect. 2 others will have "much much stronger signal" according to their own newscast. the 5th is PBS and is already digital only and has a reasonably good signal most of the time.
Some of us still like our FREE tv. I could afford dish, but I don't need to spend MORE time in front of the TV. So screw it. My 3 DVRs make it so I always have a show I like available. |

Winston Salem, NC | Local stations here don't produce HD content.
News is SD, though it looks a lot cleaner on DTV (no NTSC compromises) |

The nice thing about digital TV is it gives broadcaster about 20 Mbps to play with. They chose how to "spend" it.
