I had heard that the transition was going to occur early in some areas of the northeast in order to work out bugs. Be sure and note how well DTV works in bad weather. This is where I think it will be most likely to die-just when you need it most. I also think that the issue is not just signal strength-it is an inherant weakness in the DTV system(One that analog NTSC does not have).
If I am correct, possibly this will educate some people in time to change some things(i. e. leave some analog broadcasting in place as some other countries are doing). (I just noticed that a bill has just passed in the senate allowing analog NTSC broadcasting to continue for four more years withing 50 miles of the Mexican border)
I actually wish that the trial was in the midwest where the most severe thunderstorms occur.
