Does this really make sense anymore? KTVU only has one signal now (i.e. a
digital signal which is transmitted at a high definition resolution). Their
analog signal used to be received by the satellite companies but that signal was
turned off back on June 12th. I could be wrong but I doubt KTVU is taking their
digital signal and reducing it's resolution to send to the satellite companies.
Don't the satellite companies simply take the high definition digital signal and
cut the 4x3 picture out of the 16x9 signal and then lower it's resolution to
send to their non HD receivers? The digital signal I'm referring to is, if I'm
not mistaken, received by the satellite companies via OTA. Perhaps the signal
will be sent via fiber at some point in the future but for the moment I don't
think any signal is being sent via fiber. Please feel to correct me here if I'm
wrong.
