"Apparently, the NAB has referred to WKPT-DT, the ABC affiliate for East Tennessee and Southwest Virginia, as its "poster station" for the digital transition. President and General Manager George DeVault says that's probably because it signed on its DTV signal on October 15, 2000, and did it with an investment of $123,861."

The mom and pop stations can do this and beat the deadlines but the big boys here in town have trouble finding the bathroom. Go figure.
