That's to be expected with the networks all pledging to keep the O&Os cranking out the analog but I wonder how this will play out in the cities where only a few stations are taking the plunge. Back in my hometown of Huntsville, Alabama, of the five major stations (all UHF) only the PBS and ABC affils are dropping the analog on 2/17. There's pretty heavy cable/satellite penetration thanks to competing cable companies and lower-than-average pricing but it's still a bit of a gamble for WAAY. -- Ed Dravecky III http://www.fencon.org/ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ TV or Not TV ....
