Go to Post I don't understand why it should matter if your robot is 100% student built, 100% engineer built or somewhere in between. As long as you are Inspired (I word again) FIRST is getting its point and primary goal across. - [more]

Re: pic: Al Kills Analog

If you want to watch some analog TV, come up to Canada... we're not switching over until August 2011.

But in the big picture I wonder what format "television" will take in the next five to ten years. The improvement in streaming video over the internet that I have seen over the past five years leaves me wondering how cable, satellite and broadcast TV companies are going to react to the availability of on-demand streaming HDTV... which, if not quite a reality, soon will be.

It will be exciting to see all those TV channels re-purposed to wireless communications, though. It is amazing how much digital data can be packeted down an old NTSC channel.

While I write this, a Heathkit HW101 and matching speaker with HP13B power supply sits on my right and a SB634 Station Console sits on the left with an HW-8 and some test gear is looking down from the shelf behind me.
