There?s an error in Pete?s post.  A/53 requires the transmission of both
CEA-608 and CEA-708 captions in the digital video stream.  Kind of a stretch
to say that the transition needs to be delayed because of a lack of tower
crews for redundant transmitters and antennae.

 

There have been about 10 years to install the gear.  The real crunch was
with the first phase.
