[BC] DTV Transition Wrinkle

[Larry Bloomfield]

Hi guys:

All the questions and comments I've seen posted 
on this forum about television translators have 
been addressed in the latest edition of "The 
Tech-Notes" in the "Parting Shots" column I 
write. Go to: 
<http://www.tech-notes.tv/Archive/tech_notes_139.pdf>http://www.tech-notes.tv/Archive/tech_notes_139.pdf. 
(This is a 2.55 MB PDF file.) When it down loads, 
click on "Parting Shots" in the index. It will 
take you to page 67. Scroll down to the next page 
where it starts out: "Why should those of us," 
most all the questions and comments have been 
addressed there. I would appreciate those who go 
there and read it - your input and comments.
