really waiting to see where the whole TV market is heading before I
buy much new. I still think there will be a huge IP based TV system on

canada will still be analog


Thanks. They have channels 2 to 86 also? (I'm not actually sure the
US goes up to 86. It was supposed to at one point, but I think they
stop in the 70's or something.)


The US used to go up to 83 (not 86), but it has been limited to 69 for
20 years or do.


No wonder I don't know.. I stopped paying attention to most things
about 20 years ago.

They're supposed to be lowering the limit even more
now, I forget how far.


Wait a second. Are you saying there will still be UHF stations after
the digital conversion? With TV on them?
