According to this report, the FCC has authorized TV stations to shut down their ATSC 1.0 transmitters, and transmit using the ATSC 3.0 system only, whenever they please. Most TVs in use and for sale now do not have an ATSC 3.0 tuner, due to the additional cost.
What the guy does not address is whether the DRM issue has been sorted out. DRM is an integral part of ATSC 3.0. A lot of people who have paid up for ATSC 3.0 TVs, have found nothing but a rude message about DRM, when they try to watch their favorite program, because the body that runs the ATSC 3.0 standard does not communicate well with the body that runs the DRM.
This entire mess will probably impact at least two or three people, beside me, in metro Detroit, who use an antenna.
