DTV News: Florida Television Stations Will Conduct 3 DTV Tests

Source: Broadcasting Engineering
Eleven Florida TV stations announced that they will conduct three one-minute tests which will occur on June 25th at 7:59PM. This means that they will stop analog broadcasting by removing the video signal that feeds their analog transmitters for a few seconds causing the screens of analog-only viewers (those with no converter box or DTV set) to go dark.

The tests will help over-the-air viewers determine if they are prepared for the February 2009 DTV transition. These tests are quite similar to the ones recently done in Las Vegas as mentioned here on TVConversionhelp.
