If so, and I have no reason to doubt it, then the City of Dallas should
be compensated more than $50 million.
I would say about $100 million should do it, as they will be receiving a
demonstrably inferior channel, and a demonstrably inferior signal on that
channel.
Yet more reasons to maintain the status quo.
