with a friend the other night...
yep, 6MHZ per analog channel... which I'll be sad to see go away in the future, but hey, more is always nicer.
They could easily implement docsis 3 at that point too, which would obviously be good for the interweb 
say they even left a couple (or 5-10) analog channels out there for fallback or emergency use, or whatever, that'd still free up the VAST majority of their available space. then there could be a boatload of standard def digital channels, and a real use of HD for the rest.
on the sad note, I still love good ol' analog when it has a good signal. looks great on a nice tube, reliable as heck, doesn't pixellate, have random glitches like odd dropouts, and I'd MUCH rather have a bit of static than up and losing the signal altogether. ..oh well, towards the future we go. |
