RE: >>when TV begins digital broadcasting<< nando.net Twenty-six stations have promised the government to broadcast in digital by November, and appear to be on track. Those that didn't make promises have a government timetable to meet. Forty network stations in the top 10 markets are required to start digital by May 1, 1999. But some in New York and Chicago are having trouble finding space for towers. "The rollout there might be a little slower than anyone had anticipated," said Chuck Sherman, an executive vice president of the National Association of Broadcasters, which is meeting here this week. As long as they are making a good-faith effort, however, stations with tower or equipment problems can get more time from the Federal Communications Commission. Eventually, all stations must switch to digital.
