The Community Broadcasters Association went to court to block distribution of boxes that do not pass through analog signals, although it targeted the Federal Communications Commission rather than the NTIA." Lost in this thread is the fact that Microtune had not a single word to say about any "dueling statutes," or anything about NTSC bypass at all. Microtune was complaining about the fact that some of these coupon boxes do not pass the NTIA performance requirements over the entire TV band. The paragraph I quoted above is where the article jumps the tracks and goes off on another tangent. Here is the Microtune letter to the NTIA: http://www.microtune.com/news/2008Articles/MTLetter.pdf Bert ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can UNSUBSCRIBE from the OpenDTV list in two ways: - Using the UNSUBSCRIBE command in your user configuration settings at FreeLists.org - By sending a message to: opendtv-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word unsubscribe in the subject line.
