I'm with you there. It's one of the things being lost in this transition that no one's really talking about. I remember when I was younger in Milwaukee, I had one of those small handheld radios (the size of a PDA). You could actually select a TV station channel and it would pull just the audio if available. I used to clip it to the back of my pants and run an earpiece up my back the way reporters did with their IFBs. I'd pretend I was a reporter.
Yes, I'm a geek.
: I have a clock radio that can pick up TV Audio off Ch.3. I enjoyed listening to David Letterman when I went to bed and I thought after the DTV transition it would no longer work. I went to bed last night and I could hear Channel 3 news at 10 PM, but after the news, it turns into a continuous loop about DTV. This morning it also picked up Ch. 3 Morning news.
