Steve,

The spec requires that at a minimum EIT-0 thorugh EIT-3 be sent
(discussed on page 41 of A/65C).  Of course, I don't know if
broadcasters actually comply with the requirement (although I suspect
they could be liable for FCC fines if they do not).  I will get a
better idea when I start working on EIT support for Kaffeine.
