What’s wrong with INC – still?

WPTA President and General Manager Jerry Giesler has been touting the Indiana’s NewsCenter switch to all-digital broadcasting, and extolling WISE/NBC33’s full power digital broadcasting now that it doesn’t have to provide analog programming.

We have state-of-the-art televisions – full 1080p high definition – with amplified antennae (on roof), rotated by computers to all Fort Wayne stations.

And we’re still getting digital break-up on 33, along with occasional glitches on 21.1 (21.2 et cetera).

Yes, we have cable (Comcast) and satellite (Dish), and they’re not immune to digital break-ups either, but not as egregious as those from over-the-air broadcasting by INC.

With INC digital we get frustrating picture quality, and engineering botches that seem amateurish, even after a few years of preparation by INC's people.

So what’s the big deal Mr. Giesler?
