DTV News: Las Vegas Television Blackout - It’s only a test

A story from removethelabels.com posted earlier today talks about how a television station in Las Vegas ran a series of “this is only a test” style simulated blackouts to show customers what was going to happen when the digital transition takes place on February 17th, 2009.

Customers that had already upgraded to digital (and high definition) television signals did not experience any interruption in their broadcast reception according to the story.
