The funny and ironic thing about the ad: When she says "Will it bring Jack Benny back"? I have to wonder if the program selection committee for KEYE-SD (42-2) saw that Spike Feresten spoof ad.... They mostly air "RTV" (Retro TV) and for the first time in over 40 years I got to see - you guessed it "The Jack Benny Program". They show two of his programs back to back starting at 10:00am. I think I remember it from the early 60s - but I would never have believed just how funny some of the material was - Like a parody of how Steven Foster wrote many of his songs while suffering from writer's block - I didnt realize they GOT so silly back then - it was totally off the wall - hilarious....

Does it talk about getting the equipment with an analog pass through? Apparently a lot of small stations and repeaters will continue to broadcast analog for the time being. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Date: Mon, 6 Oct 2008 17:37:55 -0500 Subject: [ot_caving] More DTV update "Public Service Announcement" Some tips for the Digital transition Click Here for Tips Regarding the DTV Transition
