[SBE] TV Audio on HD-3

[k7cr]

Hi Kent - 

Tying this into EAS would be a good move in some locations that have
progressive EAS system.

Perhaps a station would be willing to 'donate' their HD3 until such time
as someone comes along with money, or programming has a better idea. 
That station would have to have an Importer ready to accept the
'program'  Perhaps an off-air/NWR receiver would be adequate.   Would
have better coverage than the present FM Subcarriers and TIS facilities
that presently carry it.
