Or, perhaps, history will repeat itself. Remember when 8-VSB would never work?
Remember when ATSC receivers would add $200 to the price of a set?
Remember when ATSC receivers could not be built to a 1watt/8 watt standard?
Remember when ATSC could only work with a 30 ft mast antenna, and
indoor antennas would never work?
Remember when 8-VSB was good only in gaussian, or at worst Ricean channels?
Remember when it was ridiculous to design HDTV into ATSC from the start?
I'm sure I'm forgetting a whole lot of other such wisdom imparted on
us, from day 1.
