1999 mobile DVB-T performance still beats the pants off of 2005 mobile ATSC 
performance.  2005 mobile DVB-T performance with diversity reception beats 
even the wildest theoretical mobile ATSC performance with a perfect receiver 
and a perfect equalizer in a computer simulation.

You spend one evening with an ATSC receiver (my offer to loan you one still 
stands) and then get back to me about how great ATSC is.
