General Comment:This is a bad deal for all tax payers. If I want to watch my local DTV signals then I
should be able to WITHOUT paying a cable bill as well. Are these not PUBLIC
airwaves the TV stations use? It should not make one bit of difference if I get
cable or not. What about when the cable is "out? How about all the sub
channels the local DTV station will transmit? Will my local cable company even
carry them all? If I have cable or not it shouldn't have anything to do with whether
or not I want to take advantage of the coupon program. They are two completely
separate problems not related in any way.
Please do not pass this rule until ALL Americans can get in on the coupon
program, if they want to. I didn't ask for this (DTV) and feel the cost is not mine to
bear. My TVs all work fine right now.
