Bert,

Let me walk you through it:

If the US Switched to DVB-T, then all of those boxes made today for sale in 
Australia could be easily modified to work in the US 6 MHz bandwidth and 
frequency spacing.  Europe uses 8 MHz and Australia uses 7 MHz, so all DVB-T 
chipsets sold today worldwide are 6-7-8 MHz capable.  Only the RF front end 
needs to be tweaked for the appropriate bandwidth.  (And I recall one 
company that actually did make a "worldwide box" that had all three front 
ends included.)
