Digital Television Solutions

With the exception of Denver, nearly all the top 40 markets are broadcasting their digital signals. The recent decisions by the FCC will allow some stations to delay their implementation of DTV but it will not stop the change over. DTV is inevitable and with Congress expecting a large influx of cash from the sale of the available spectrum to be vacated when the switch to Digital in concluded they will not change their mind. As further proof that DTV is inevitable, several stations have applied for extensions to the on air date and have been turned down. While some grace period may be allowed, is it worth betting your license?

Meeting even the bare minimum requirement for broadcasting a digital signal in most cases requires putting up at least a low power antenna with flexible feed line. Knowing what the tower can or cannot handle and picking the best possible equipment for the job is cheap insurance for a very expensive broadcasting license.
