Station Forgot to 'flip the switch'!

My local ABC HD station showed the Peter Jennings ufo program last night in SD, so I watched it in HD on the NYC ABC HD channel. When I called my local ABC station, they had no idea why they dropped the ball. The engineer said that they have to manually flip a switch when an HD program comes on! That would explain why they sometimes are late switching the picture to hidef, eh?

Guess someone was in the bathroom at Channel 13-1 last night!

Happens more often than you can imagine. Seems like automation might catch up here.....but you can't over think it when it comes to tv stations and providers.....

The guy/girl at our station must get the scatters alot because he/she always forgets. Ive called numerous times.
