Does anyone have a link to FCC rules that concern HDTV emissions outside
their assigned channel?  We have a channel 2 DTV station that is just wiping
out the six meter band.  You would think they would be better able to
suppress trash that is almost 4 MHz below the lower edge of their channel.
Some of those affected are planning to do some spectrum analyzer
measurements.

Thanks in advance!
