Wilmington NC going digital first

I thought this was kind of interesting. Apparently Wilmington, NC is going to be the first city to transition from analog to digital television broadcasts.

Wilmington, NC, population 96,000, has agreed to become the first city in the country to turn off its analog TV stations and switch to digital. The FCC said that the city will thereby become a test market on Sept. 8 to determine what problems, if any, the nation may experience as a whole on Feb. 18, when broadcasters in the rest of the country will be required the make the same switchover.

This was from imdb studio brief.
