RE: I don't understand uncertainity of Blu Ray adaptation

Posted by DavidLD on December 12, 2008 at 06:28:39:
as I understand it, there may be a rebirth of the still permiitted low power analog stations in urban areas..The sad part is that most of the govt converter boxes will not still pass through an analog signal from an antenna and setting up a configuration that will permit switching back and forth might be more complex than many will want to try. I'm waiting to see what pops out on analog locally after Feb 17th..there is one station currently but my reception is not good to the point of being unwatchable. It may turn out that some of these low power analog channels are now able to improve their signal.

This may be like vinyl vs CD

Despite the ads to the contrary, analog is NOT complely dead after Feb 17
