> I have a USB antenna that I can record HDTV off the air

How is the quality of the HD from the airwaves? Is it as good as
cabled? Any dropouts? I suppose that's just for stations like ABC,FOX,
etc. that are stations broadcasting if HD along with their SD signals.
Are there just a few signals or hundreds?

As soon as I find out I will post it.

H.264 is the Blu-Ray spec.

I would like to hand the broadcast station a finished product.
Something they can just pop, play and record from... like a DVD.
Another option could be to just record the final edited show episode
back to the same HDV camera I recorded the show on. That way it would
be 1080i/60i/480/HDV. Does that sound plausible? I can play it back to
my 46" HDTV through the SVideo cable. I suppose they would except HDV
tape if it meant the highest quality show. I could send them a data
file but would they then need Premiere Pro? I'm not sure if just a
MPEG-2 file would do the trick.

My Sony 46w3000 (46" HDTV) also has a PC video monitor "in". I might
just send the signal right out of the computer/Premier Pro into the
HDTV to see what it looks like. Right now I'm just trying to get the
best version of the show I can in Premier Pro. My next step can be to
figure out how to transport it to the broadcast station.

In searching, a Blu-Ray writer that can also read DVDs is around
$500.00. Not bad if you're making money with it.

Any comments are appreciated.

Thanks, Mark
