There is something I don't understand.  Is the FCC requiring use of both analog and digital transmission?  I thought this decision just extends the time that analog is permitted.  Stations are going to lose viewers no matter what the cut off date is.
Let's hope stations are digital ready by now.


I just paid $120 for cable and Internet and am seriously thinking of putting an antenna near the window for my $12 converter box.

This has already been rescheduled about 10 times in the last 7 or 8 years, it will again and might even run TV stations broke in the process. 10K extra a month to run both ways at the same time is a lot of money with the economy as it is.
