[SBE] TV Audio on HD-3

[Fluker, Steve (CXR-Orlando)]

I have already talked to NWR about retransmitting on HD3, and they not
only said it was ok, but encourage it.

I was about to shoot a note to Herb and ask if there were any issues
about retransmitting NWR on an HD multicast channel.  Glad you're
looking in to it.  Rather have an expert pose the question.

I am looking into the NWR on HD3 issue right now....I know that there
are locations where you find dedicated Noaa Weather on normal FM
channels.  

If a TV broadcaster were willing to trade something for HD3 carriage of
their audio this could be a nice plus for the radio station, not sure
how the TV would view the addition of the HD3 channel, especially in
light of the limited number of receivers out there.
