If the US had gone with the DVB-T COFDM standard, instead of the ATSC
8VSB standard, we would have much better immunity to reflections.

OFDM is fairly immune to reflections, which appears as frequency
selective fading. If a few carriers end up cancelling with a
reflection, then COFDM still has 1700 or more carriers that continue
to pass data. With FEC, most of the data gets through. Something
