Analog vs. Digital Television

Description:  In this video an analog and a digital television signal are compared. Many students today are not familiar with analog television and the problem of static. Analog television uses changes in the amplitude, frequency or phase of the radio waves to transmit information. Problems of this technology include susceptibility to interference (or static), color consistency, and a smaller image. Digital sends the information as a series of 0's and 1's that are converted into the pixels on the screen. It is difficult to find an analog television signals in the US but the radio is a great substitute.

My location is in a shadow area from analog Channel 23 & digital Channel 24 which their transmitters at Bulua, Cagayan de Oro but line of sight from Channel 2 Kitanglad so normally we watch ABS CBN via Ch 2 Kitanglad because their signal is very clear but I chose Ch 23 on purpose while capturing this video because their DTV in Cagayan de Oro is on Ch 24 which is adjacent from Ch 23 so their wavelength is almost the same and their propagation characteristics are near identical plus their transmitting antenna are mounted from the same tower.
