Then get the interference problem fixed. Anything that interferes with
commercial radio or TV signals is illegal and the FCC will skin the
interferee.


DTV deniers continually and deliberately ignore the fact that until
the official switch-over occurs, many stations are broadcasting a
digital signal at far less power than they will be using when they
shut down the analog and go completely digital.


Untrue;local station WKMG-TV6 has advertised that they will be REDUCING
their DTV power after Feb.17.I've seen local coverage maps that show that
areas now served will lose coverage after that date.


I can't seem to find any evidence of that on their website, which has
a whole section devoted to the DTV conversion. They don't seem to
mention that at all.





Having poor DTV reception NOW is meaningless.- Hide quoted text -

the FCC would admit it they just dont have the manpower to research
interference anymore.

At one time they had ovber 50,000 employees today its less than 5000
primarily DC regulators
