There was a post 6/10 from Dominic Dileo with a link to the EE Times I think,
that the date was Mar. 2006 for 27" and above and July 2007 for anything under
13" as I recall. That the target date for ending analog transmission was Dec
2006. You must have seen it. If you didn't I still have it if interested. Was
this incorrect and if so, who has, or where is, the " absolute" correct
information?
