Karl appears to be saying that dumping the NTSC OTA signal will lose too
many viewers who "pay the bills" for the station and they will go under
without their viewing numbers as he rightfully doesn't believe at this
point in time they will go out and buy STB's to downconvert the digital
OTA signal.

There are a couple of brodcast engineers who have commented on this string.
So, tell me if I am wrong. My educated guess is that:

A) Cameras are digital
B) Studio editing equipment is digital
C)Studio to transmitter link is digital (of unknown to us format)
D)OTA analog signal is derived from digital

If this is not true, why the hell isn't it.
