many TV companies are upset because they will now have to keep those analog xmtrs on. And keep renting the tower sites. Yes it may not be “green” but people can’t be deprived from seeing THE ONE.

In Boston the analog xmtr for WFXT/25 (Fox) is on its last legs and is probably barely putting out power. PBS station WGBX/44 may want to pull analog plug early,too, as their analog xmtr is “aging”.

http://www.fybush.com/nerw.html has a rundown of who’s turning off and who isn’t in the northeast. but even that is subject to change
