That's one thing I don't understand... It took me forever to get it through my thick head that DTV (digital tv) wasn't necessarily HDTV (hi def tv). Will all channels go to HD thus getting rid of channel 6 as opposed to 1006? or will they just transition to digital broadcast and keep the same channel call numbers?  Thanks for the lesson!
