The FCC is working on changing the way TV signals are transmitted as they did before. They are getting ready to change things so TV stations broadcast in 4K Ultra HD and a better reception. They just opened discussions on next generation broadcast TV standards. Here we go again.

ummmm.. ATSC-3 development has been going on for years with no involvement from the FCC, this is a manufacturer and industry led development. Nothing has changed whatsoever with this research. The ONLY thing that has happened with the FCC in recent weeks is the announced results of the latest spectrum auction that has nothing to do with any Next Gen TV. It's nothing more than another spectrum grab by the wireless companies that the FCC thought they were going to get hundreds of billions of dollars for. Didn't happen.

OBTW- all but a very few TV's out there today are not compatible with ATSC-3, and none of them contain the interactive that AFAIK is not finalized. It's gonna be a tough sell to people with TV's that simply don't fail anymore, and there will be no subsidies this time
