Uhm, what?

Der Commissar notes that Congress is mandating all digital TeeVee by 2009. Good to see that with all that’s going on these days about alleged illegal wiretapping and wars and stuff that they can make time for this.

Also, I’ve searched my copy of the Constitution for where that authority lies and can’t quite find it. Any help?

    Transmitting bandwidth is a commodity that is in short supply. The goal is to free up bandwidth that is currently used by analog tv stations.

    Commerce Clause. Spectrum use is one of those areas that actually does benefit greatly from getting everybody on the same page.

    Now if only they would turn that spectrum over for wireless Internet.

  3. Manish Says:

    Apparently a big driver is that the spectrum being used by analog TV can be freed up for emergency personel and some of it can be auctioned off for other services.

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
