Les, I think a lot of those HOAs will be in for a lot of work next  
month, once the analog televisions stop transmitting.  If you haven't  
experimented with the new digital signals, you will find that you will  
either have a perfect picture; or no picture.  There is nothing in  
between.  No snow, no ghosts, etc.

If you are having problems receiving the ABC affiliate now, just wait  
until next month!
