Description

WVEC DIRECTOR of Technology John Dolive laughed out loud when asked if his station's newscasters are concerned about high-definition broadcasts bringing their littlest imperfections into Hampton Roads homes. "If they aren't now," he said, "they will be!" HDTV is a format of digital television that provides the highest possible resolution and picture quality. A congressional mandate requires all U.S. broadcasters to end their traditional analog television signals on Feb. 17 in favor of digital signals. The stations are not required to broadcast in high definition. With many network and syndicated programs now being transmitted in high definition, however, local stations are beginning to feel the pressure to go hi-def. Shane Moreland, former news director with WTKR, experienced the high-definition transition process firsthand, having worked at WSLS in Roanoke. The NBC affiliate was the first station in the state to do an HD newscast, he said.
