Y'know, it seems to this dumbass old reactionary inbred redneck that Our Masters in Warshington didn't perzacly figger out this whole golly-gee-whiz HDTV thing too well...OK, it DOES give a good picture, as long as EVERYTHING's right. A storm knocks it out. too far away, & THAT knocks it out. It ain't backwards compatible. And when you need it MOST, like during a storm, tornado, hurricane, it won't work. Analog might not have given you a picture where you could count the hairs on a gnat's arse, but it stayed on the air during inclement weather, & even in my remote location, I could pull in a gaggle of stations, at least ONE of which I likely could have gotten info from...
