This is also what i have heard, so it's not a standard HDTV signal that is
mandated, just a digital signal.
And i also heard the government allocated 3 billion dollars for digital to
analog convertors for those whose can't afford new tv to continue to use
their old ntsc analog tv sets well into the future.
