Engadget HD goes hands-on with the high def six o'clock news

The only thing better than watching HD is learning how it actually works. So we took a trip down to WFTS in Tampa Florida to get schooled on what it took for them to upgrade their daily newscast to HD. And yes, we took lots of pics.

WRAL FTW!

I guess i have been spoiled all this time.
From Wikipedia
In 1996, WRAL-TV was granted the first experimental high-definition television license in the United States by the FCC. In 2000, WRAL-DT aired the world's first all-HDTV newscast on October 13. In January 2001, WRAL converted all of its local news broadcasts to high-definition.
