I received an e-mail response from Carl Levin on my opinion of the DTV transition delay. I'm thinking it was a generic response but nonetheless I do appreciate his response. Mr. Levin did have good points that a lot of people who did request coupons had them turned down, and others whos coupons expired weren't receiving new ones. Here's his e-mail to me (click the title or click read more to see the full message):
Dear Mr. *******:
Thank you for contacting me regarding the transition from analog to digital television. I appreciate hearing from you on this matter.
As you may know, digital television is a service that represents a significant change in the way we watch TV. Digital television can provide sharper pictures, a wider screen, CD-quality sound, and better color than their analog predecessors. Transitioning to digital television also frees a large portion of the analog airwaves, which can then be used for other important services, such as communications for first responders.
