I noticed something interesting yesterday (Saturday).

I have a HD TV set up at the music shop and have it attached to a
rabbit ear antenna set that I stuck up in the overhead above the
ceiling. It works well. When I initially did the auto channel
search programing, it detected 5 analog channels and 18 digital
channels being broadcast "over the air".

Friday was supposed to be the federally mandated end of analog TV
transmission.

Saturday afternoon I repeated the auto channel detection setup ritual.

It still detects 5 analog channels and 18 digital. When I tune to
one of the analog channels, it's still there in all it's snowy, weak
signal glory.

Did five TV stations forget to turn the analog switch to "off"?

That's interesting - open carriers? Can you tell if there's a signal?

The guv'mint forgot to turn off the mind control sub-channel. They were
too busy passing out coupons to for everyone to buy the set-top-boxes to
receive the new mind control sub-channels.



Is that what Glenn Beck told you to think? Sounds like something that
crackpot would say.
