I live at the northern tip of the Chesapeake Bay, about half way between
Philly and Baltimore. With analog TV, I could get all Baltimore and all
Philly stations, plus Harrisburg, and sometimes 4, 7, and 9 in DC,
depending on the weather. Last week I got channel 6 in Philly, and 10
with audio only, nothing else, new antenna.
I cook on a stove with fire. People have cooked with fire for thousands
of years and most haven't entirely given up on it. It works--well--not
likely to be replaced with microwaves any time soon. Analog TV has only
been around for 60 or so years. If it ain't broke, don't "fix" it. If
they want to change the technology, the least that they should do is
pick the technology that works. The US implementation of DTV is a
failure, so far, for most people in cities, suburbs and rural areas.
DTV is highway robbery.
