Pennsylvania TV stations set Nov 17 for a test of the analog cutoff scheduled to happen for real Feb 17, 2009. So, far, about 40 stations have signed on for the one-minute test, either actually pulling the plug on analog broadcasts and leaving viewers with snow, or a "soft" test, in which the analog signal will be a message that if they are watching that message, "you or your pay TV provider are not ready for Feb. 17, 2009 -- the date analog television ends."
