[B]February 2009 tv blackout?[/B]
Digital transition
Is it really the case that broadcast TV in the DR is transitioning from analog to digital at the same time as the US? Are there converter box subsidies? I'd assume the majority of dominicans who watch TV will lose signal - a majority does not have cable or dish.

If They Don't Have "CABLE" Nobody Cares Anyway.
Aaaand the DR is not going "All Digital" anyway!

If only there was a cable blackout too I'd be sure to plan my trip to coincide with it. Saves all those arguments about whether to turn the TV off or not, and gives you a chance to enjoy the other good things of life (both indoors and outdoors). And you can go into a bar without being blasted by some sports event or other, so the customers may actually talk to each other.

Who said anything about HD?
So do I, but then again, is this about producing and transmitting programs in HD quality? Digital does not automatically imply HD.
