FCC OKs analog nightlight

The FCC on Jan. 15 approved the analog nightlight program, which allows stations time after the DTV transition to keep analog signals for DTV educational and community emergency messages. The rule applies to 310 of the 1,749 stations making the DTV transition; they must prove the nightlight won't cause more than 0.1 percent of interference to digital stations. Stations can still apply to be included.
