how much harder is DTV?

So I don't see how bandwidth is improved by the new system.

Wouldn't you agree that "Dark Lord Chris" doesn't have as much of a ominous or threatening ring to it as other names? I mean can you hear people saying "Run! The Dark Lord Chris coming!" just doesn't sound right. You'd have to work extra hard to inspire fear with a name like that. My theory is that you need a two syllable name- Vader, Sauron. THose seem to work. Three syllables is too much...think about Voldemort...that name just sounds stupid. Then again, Dark Lord Christoper doesn't sound so bad even though it has 3 syllables, but it doesn't sound as good the Dark Lord Christoph which only has two.

Like Dark Lord Torben sounds much better. Dark Lord Chris is about as fear-inspiring as Dark Lord Jiggly Puff.

177 to 803 MHz...that's still a lot of bandwidth.
How many stations can occupy that?

There are a lot of friendly names. Dark Lord Buffy Dark Lord Sam. I don't think syllables make the difference. Jimmy, Larry, Bernie. (Can't end with "e") It should sound foreign and starting with an uncommon first letter may help. Exitor, Yourlic, Zqurkenphk. Ok, I'll stop.
