I never had much of a problem with 8-VSB, and I assumed that reception would improve. It has, but to say that all the oft-repeated objections to 8-VSB have dropped by the wayside is either 1) a lie or 2) an ignorant statement. There are no other choices. Stephen Long has issues; as does Mark Schubin. Their oft-repeated issues have not gone away. They are not alone. Old receivers will persist in the user space.
