Oh boy, you’re gonna love this one – it’s been a while coming

Connects all the way back to 1986…. and Beverly Hills. Also includes my decision at the time not to move to Calgary.

And the connection to Digital TV…..

And of course what would I do without the help of the Police in this story.

Turning on of the Digital Broadcasting Signal in Canada……

….Effect on existing analog technology

Television sets with only analog tuners cannot decode digital transmissions. When analog broadcasting over the air ceases, users of sets with analog-only tuners may use other sources of programming (e.g. cable, recorders) or may purchase set-top converter boxes to tune in the digital signals. In the United States, a government-sponsored coupon was available to offset the cost of an external converter box. Analog switch-off (of full-power stations) took place on June 12, 2009 in the United States,[7] July 24, 2011 in Japan,[8] August 31, 2011 in Canada,[9] February 13, 2012 in Pan-Arab States, and is scheduled for October 24, 2012 in the United Kingdom[10] and Ireland,[11]by October 31, 2012 in India (select cities only), by December 31, 2013 in Australia,[12] by 2015 in the Philippines and Uruguay and by 2017 in Costa Rica…..

That’s all for tonight, I’m turning off the blog and watching a movie.

I’ll update tomorrow. Stay Tuned…. this gets better and better all the time.

OMGOD am I having fun.
