"DTV stations cannot broadcast in both ATSC 3.0 and ATSC 1.0 from the same facility, which is why broadcasters need to partner with other stations in the market in order to simulcast in both transmission standards."

So.....we'll lose some stations, to simulcast the same program in both formats during the transition.

ATSC 3.0 on the main channel and XX-2 or XX-3 will carry the ATSC 1.0 until Congress gives the green light.

Guess that would make our NTSC sets truly Antique - two generations old!

Anybody got a B-T ATSC 1.0 modulator???
