I also picked up some AVID recently, along with shares of ANDW and ACRO, and think that digital television companies will gradually gain visibility. ANDW (Andrew Corporation) makes antennas, and apparently the antennas for digital signals are designed differently from those for analog signals (though I can't imagine why). ACRO (Acrodyne) makes transmitters. The company is a microcap, and is thinly traded. They recently signed an agreement with Sinclair Broadcast, which will be buying an interest in the company, and agreeing to buy tons of their transmitters. Acrodyne feels that the investment and extra business will give them additional credibility to gain additional sales from others.
