Potentially useful resources:


http://sutrotower.com See the section regarding the repacking plan

http://www.larrykenney.com/ Has several sections related to SF broadcasting and Sutro
http://www.aa6g.org/DTV/index.html Chuck is an enthusiast on the deep fringe of SF reception.


There are only certain antenna designs that lend themselves to gaining much benefit from a re-design following the repack which completes in two years. As best, one might eke out a dB or 2 (probably less) of improved performance from any tweaking. Existing antennas would still work the same as before, pretty much like your current car still works the same as before even though the newest models might offer more torque or horsepower.


FWIW, many of our competitors are still selling their pre-2009 models since they never upgraded any of them. Only our legacy DB8 (out of production for a while) and the 91XG (very low volume) are pre-2009 designs.


Before it is is asked, I have no shareable information regarding future plans of my employer.
