WSAZ is in 16X9 on newscasts

Post by genlock »

Wide screen and does not appear to be a video effect.
TV set says 1080i but does not look that sharp.
Maybe 480i up converted?

Maybe the 1.7:1 signal incubator is not phasing with the plasmatic interface during catalytic amplification.

Upconversion is less expensive than buying EVERTHING downstream. One component in the airchain could hold a station back from full 1080i.
No one make any sudden moves. The pixels on the Ashland cable system are having a hard time keeping up.

So that's the problem with current HD TV broadcasts. It just has not got up to 88mph yet.

I only asked cause most cable and sat providers are upconverting some signals so they can be carried with the HD packages... a 480p signal can make a quite pretty 1080i picture, not a pretty as one generated at 720 but pretty still..

Though very much a bragging point early on, I notice the treadles were the first things redesigned for all the latest-generation models!

Whether it is or not, I can't help but wonder how they're dealing with the heat! Especially if it's not!

I said one of the flayrods is out of skew on the treadle. I didn't expect a kind of Spanish Inquisition!
