I hate to put a damper on your conspiracy theories, but ATSC was
designed in the late 1980's and early 1990's. I don't think that their
impact on cell phones played any part whatsoever. The "digital
transition" that occurred last week was, at one time, scheduled to have
occurred in 1997. This system took a LONG time to get born. WAY too
long for it's design to have been influenced by concerns for ATSC's
impact on 3G cell phone video in 2009.
