UHF is UHF, regardless of whether it is digital or analog. Calling a station Channel 2 or Channel 4 doesn’t mean a thing if that signal is broadcast on a UHF channel (now 14-51, or analog to 69). If the digital signal is at or near the noise level, you won’t get the picture. UHF has many problems, especially in hilly areas and areas of vegetation, even your neighborhood trees cut the signal a lot. And most TV signals will now be on UHF.

The $75,000 income rule for coupons proposed here sounds a lot like a “progressive” income tax.

Considering the history of UHF and the FCC, the problems with the changeover is ironic on several levels.

I suppose the playing field is now more "even", but what would DuMont think?
