That is STILL not the point. How does someone explain this to Doug. A single example of good reception does NOT fix the bad reception of the many no matter how many times and in how many ways you describe it. You seem to suggest that everyone that has bad reception is doing something wrong since it cannot possible by 8-VSB. It is 8-VSB.
