Channels 2 through 6 are a moot point as they go dark in 2007 when the
forced conversion to digital TV is scheduled.  Either way there will
likely be a lot of ticked off people, especially when they learn how
much DTV will cost them in terms of suddenly obsolete consumer
electronics.

Does anyone else see a fundamental failing of the FCC going back to AM
Stereo?
