I don't have any more than this but I presume it was on "digital television".

Oh looky thar, Dave Franken et al slapping their big local chequebook around sending Frank o/s for 'special reports'.

I'd say the timing of the sat link was out, when else have you seen a promo to lead into the news? Normally 7 & 9 go straight to news from 5:30 closing credits.

So a promo's played, still no Frank, network feed before switching Frank in.

But I wonder what would have happened if we adopted the Japanese "analog HD" prior to digital's introduction?
