[Scan-DC] House Vote Not To Delay DTV Helps Prince George's County

[Jeff Krauss]

The Statter story says:
A delay of even a few weeks could stall the county's radio system for 
a year. That's because fine tuning and testing of the radios has to 
be done when leaves are on the trees. The leaves actually can reduce 
how far the radio waves travel. The work, scheduled to begin in 
April, would have to be moved to Spring, 2010.

Where I live, the leaves stay on the trees from April until 
October.  So the alleged need to delay testing for a year is clearly bogus.
