John made a good point. It's just that to me, this NTSC issue is a very
temporary problem, and it applies only to LPTV or translator users. My hope is
that all of these will go to digital long before 2012.
By the way, if I were dependent on a translator, I'd be doing whatever I could
to get them to switch over pronto. Since translators belong to full power
stations, I would expect they would switch over as soon as the FCC gives them a
frequency. LPTV might be something different, since I assume they are usually
strapped for cash.
In short, I don't think this is much than something to chuckle at the feds
about.
