DIGITAL TV DELAY??
A clerical error on Capitol Hill is believed responsible for a $2 billion spending difference between the House and Senate versions of the budget reconciliation bill recently signed by President Bush, and it could derail the "date certain" of February 17, 2009 for conversion to digital television.
Neither legislative branch is inclined to revisit the highly controversial legislation, so if the error can't be corrected by another means, it could pose a threat to and/or a potential delay in efforts to release analog TV spectrum for future use by public safety.
