[ExtremeDog]

The switch was to have taken place this weekend. Can anyone confirm that it happened?

It looked like I was watching the saints through a damn fishtank as usual.

.......HD broadcast signal is the worst in the short history of HD broadcasting. Any live event such as a football game broadcast from CBS sports, the SEC Network, etc. always comes with pixelation, brief freez-ups, brief 5.1 audio cut outs, and a general sense that you need eye glasses to clear up the blur. It provides a GREAT contrast to the beauty of an ESPN live HD broadcast, in case you ever need to make that comparison.

WLBT(NBC) isn't a lot better, but they're at least watchable. WAPT(ABC) and WDBD(FOX) have the best local HD broadcast quality, especially with the live events.

I agree, but those are signal strength issues. At least they are at my house. I wonder if Comcast people have the same complaints.

I presume DirecTV has a direct feed.

According to the Directv website, it's supposed to happen on the 9th.

Yes, CBS HD is a blocky, pixelated mess. Doesn't matter if it's CSI, SEC natioanl game, network game , or NFL game. WJTV is piss poor

I was told they'd make the switch on or about October 7.
