The...Hey there -<BR/>The shift to digital is ridiculous. They showed a PSA for it, and my Dad just muttered, "Oh, great, now our TV will have digital shit instead of analog shit on it..."<BR/>It's unnecessary to make it mandatory, but you better believe this is the effect of business lobbying.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I finally posted the denouement of what happened with my dingus roommate.

Obviously its some kind of blog spam. please don't click on that link. I haven't. Can I delete that comment? I want to make it easy for people to comment, that's why I didn't enable the word verification thing, but I might have to if this continues.<BR/><BR/>Nina/Norman, do you get any other channels on DTV? Did you get your new tv from Costco? I'll have to check it out!tknhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18428636085182583970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20498485.post-17553739539092644192008-03-13T18:05:00.000-07:002008-03-13T18:05:00.000-07:00it's all so ridiculous. i ordered one of those cou...it's all so ridiculous. i ordered one of those coupons (which has yet to arrive) for the converter box, which we'll use on our old tv. we just bought one of those digital HD tv's and i notice OPB already has a digital signal (we now get 3 or 4 different OPB channels, which i love!). i can't really tell a difference though, although i'm still adjusting to the HD picture. kind of overwhelming to the senses.Ninahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03156718509284222442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20498485.post-80730684304541177652008-03-11T06:06:00.000-07:002008-03-11T06:06:00.000-07:00That's the thing with digital.

The number I've heard tossed around is in the neighborhood of 35 miles. So if you live too far out, antenna service may not cut it.<BR/><BR/>If you're a cable or satellite subscriber, you won't be affected, but please don't tell my wife this. I've already convinced her that we have to upgrade to a big flat-panel HDTV.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11715705463586044682noreply@blogger.com
