So...today was the" big transition" from analog to digital signals for TVs. Any thoughts on the new DTV signal? This Stanley Cup final was the first game (and first TV program in general) I ever saw with this new signal. My TV, antenna, and converter box were ready for this day. After watching the game and watching not only the game, but the behavior of the TV in general, I came up with a verdict: better than I expected! The images were crystal clear, as if I had cable and not the basic local channels. I could see the puck and the faces of the players much better than with the old analog signal, which was fuzzy at best. The only gripe I have is that the signal was very sensitive to changes in the weather. It was pretty windy outside when the game was entering its second period, and the signal would get messed up, freezing the image for a few seconds. Other than that, I think it's a change for the better. |
