Sony is an exception that also provides reporting of signal to noise ratio, but how they measure SNR is not on their home page.

Glad to know that. <sighhhh> It seems like this whole digital transition was just another way of government just trying to make things "fun" for us. Analog was fine - if you could deal with varying degrees of snow versus the absolute terms of digital ALL or NONE.
Oh well. "progress"
