This is a strange truth...

Some of the non-digital broadcast channels (FOX TV in my upstate NY area...) are output via the toslink output, but some are not...

So it's not even that all analog sound comes out of the RCA jacks, it's just SOME of the analog stations....

Looking forward to all digital local broadcasts in 2006 though...
