You should know by now there is not a snowball's chance in Hell of selling any other modulation standard before we all get to use 8vsb for awhile. ;-)

And since it is so nifty it would not hurt to allow another modulation. Since there is no difference according to Bert nothing would happen. It would be a non event. On the other hand if there is a difference all hell could break loose.

Thinking outside the box again. Who would have thought that further delay was the answer? The logic being that those who made the mess somehow might know how to fix it?Apples and oranges, Bob. This delay is NOT caused by 8-VSB. This delay is caused by only one main factor, and that factor would still apply even if we had DVB-T: Making the transition happen, countrywide, in the blink of an eye. My advice to the FCC is to take this request for a delay as an opportunity to reschedule how the transition should be made. Doing it in one fell swoop, no matter what the date, will create the same sort of hand wringing and last minute stage frights.
