Comments on: What About Television Watching in Quartzsite? http://rvingquartzsite.com/?p=84 Mon, 14 Jun 2010 20:20:50 -0700 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9 hourly 1 By: Mike J Mac http://rvingquartzsite.com/?p=84&cpage=1#comment-108 Mike J Mac Sun, 09 Nov 2008 00:41:30 +0000 http://rvingquartzsite.com/?p=84#comment-108 I think your report missed one important point. Which, if any, digital signals are already available in Quartzite? (I have not been to that part of Arizona, or I would fill you in.) Most TV stations are currently broadcasting in both analog and digital. According to TV Guide, it appears that Yuma channels 9, 11, and 13 are currently broadcasting in both analog and digital. The February 17 date has been widely mis-reported as a switch date. The truth is that most stations have been broadcasting in both analog and digital for years. February 17 only marks the end of analog broadcasting by the full power stations and not necessarily the start of digital. Congratulations on the rest of your report. It is the most accurate that I have seen on the subject of the transition to DTV. I think your report missed one important point. Which, if any, digital signals are already available in Quartzite?
