KPEJ - Fox24 HDTV update

KPEJ now expects their high definition encoder in October. I wonder if I'll get to watch the Dallas Cowboys in high definition before Bill Parcells eats Terrell Owens.

Just found the blog today. Just what I needed! I have been searching and searching for information about KPEJ's plans.

After you have had a taste of football in HD, the other broadcasts just aren't the same.

Do the cable stations immediately have the HD signals once station has their equipment in place?

You're right... the bad thing about watching HD is it makes everything else look bad.

The local broadcasters have to negotiate with the cable companies before the new broadcasts are available on cable. I think it took a couple of weeks for CableOne and KWES to get together recently.
