KING-5 has been crappy all week, lots of dropouts. Hopefully ditching analog will do something. Then again, I won't really care until September since Conan isn't very funny.

I vote for the Indian. An analog monoscope image would be a fitting end to analog TV.

I get the impression that as far as the broadcasters are concerned, this is like getting rid of an old car. You just want it gone.

My TV seems to be on the fritz today. All I get are KING-TV 5 and KBTC-TV 28 in spanish running some kind of infomercial stuff? I guess I will just have more time to run the scanner from now on?

I did a band scan today, nothing had changed in signal strength. Good thing I have cable, which is basic and overpriced. I feel bad for some schlub out there who can't get anything but over the air or doesn't want to get bent over by cable or dish companies and has a shitty signal now. Will the translators stay analog?
