In February of 2009, the mandated change-over to digital televison will occur.
Question # 1. : Has anyone heard what the F.C.C. plans to do with the "space" created by this move?
IF the F.C.C. plans to keep these "channels" open for digital, there SHOULD be an abundant place for multiple channels, say "Ch. 3.1", "Ch. 3.2 HD?", "Ch. 3. Music?", etc.
Question # 2. : Is this change-over going to allow commercial, two-way radio users an opening to use "digital voice" (possibly scrambled for privacy) for business comms?
I'm not talking about Hi-fidelity audio, but at least very pleasant to listen too and understand clearly.
No, I'm NOT talking about a complete digital "takeover" of all communications, now within the next 20 to 25 years, possibly, Ha ha. Just wondering.
ANY information that can be proved would be greatfully accepted.
Respectfully,
