Doug;
It's not time to put anything to rest, at least until the transition is
closed.
Nobody is happy with DTV set penetration. However, when I hear people of
re-writing the 1996 com act re-write of 1996, I hear not a clue as to
changing anything relating to broadcasting. So, it's not (audibly) a
political issue. Today.
Better reception capability will mean better penetration: of signals and of
sets. That's good all around, and Zenith/LG, I hope, is not resting on
their 5th Gen laurels.

This is absurd. Lots of people already have DTV sets ... they
work fine, 5th gen or not. It's time to put to rest the expereinces
of a very few people in few blue cities. Most of the USA
is red, very red ... and in most of those places DTV
just works. It certainly just works around here ... as
long as there is enough transmitter power.
