It is indeed very strange.  At the risk of the various jokes about 
my paranoia I will admit that it is very easy to postulate one or 
more entities that really really do not seem to want working ATSC 
  receivers on the market.   But even given that I just can not 
imagine who would stand to gain that much from it that they 
(whoever) would pressure others to not make working receivers.

But it sure does seem that anyone announcing the intention to 
build one just sort of disappears, gives up, or at least forgets 
what they were going to do.

Is Sinclair still claiming they now believe ATSC works?  Or are 
they being quiet too?
