Default OT (sort of) Makes you wonder what else they're up to...

This digital change over is going to be a diaster.
Mark my words.

Wonder if the US gov't would send a couple of those free converters up here.
I have two 19" JVC analog sets, left behind by my sons, that work perfectly.


But all in all, my wife pays about 100$ per month for sat. TV. basicly
1200$ a year for watching a tube.

I'd like to can the whole thing myself. Or put up an antenna and go
back to freebie.



I haven't been following the TV ads, so is my assumption that TV
broadcasting is coming to an end over the "airwaves" next year correct?
