As an actual user of OTA and HDTV, the idea that you distort the
usership numbers downward and that the real issues with OTA TV are
hidden behind this nonsensical modulation "debate" is really getting
old.

We have a perfect example of what ails OTA TV in the Gainesville market.
Craig says 93 percent cable penetration. Gee, what a surpise. They don't
even provide the major networks OTA. Is it really that hard to figure
out why Gainesville TV customers don't care much about their ATSC tuner?

Honestly, Bob, you sound to me like someone prescribing Nyquil to cure a
patient with a broken leg.
