NAB to run model DTV station at convention 
Jan 19, 2005 10:14 AM, HD Technology Update

As the digital transition at over-the-air TV stations progresses and 
HD becomes an evermore-relevant issue, the NAB plans to construct and 
operate a model local TV station outputting both SD and HD at its 
annual convention April 16-21 in Las Vegas.

The NAB wants to enhance and promote educational show content and 
demonstrate the implementation and operation of a DTV station. 
Programming material from the station, which will be located in the 
North Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center, will be distributed to 
hotel rooms, in shuttle busses and at the convention center. The 
station also will stream its content via the Internet for those not 
attending the show.

Program content will include:

- Short interviews with exhibitors and guests.
- Prerecorded presentations and interviews with engineering and 
management figures on specific issues faced when implementing DTV.
- Recorded roundtable discussions shot on the NAB-HD set and recorded 
for scheduled playback.
