Digital Journal

I attended a SMPTE Section meeting in the U.K. recently and got involved in a discussion with several broadcasters regarding our road maps for the future.

It takes planning to encode, brand, multiplex and transmit at multiple sites

By now, most television stations have discovered that the road to DTV is not anywhere near as smooth as we'd like it to be and is definitely taking longer than desired.

Recently I have been doing some research on unmanned aerial vehicles (drones) both for the Iowa Public Television production department and for use in engineering to do tower inspections.

I’ve spent a considerable amount over the last few years working on projects that examine what television broadcasting will be like in the future.

In this month's Journal I wanted to share some observations I have made over the last few years regarding DTV receivers.
