Expanding the term "dtv" to digital television and then translate 
television into "seeing something somewhere which takes/took place 
somewhere else" I can agree with the dtv-prefix.

Still I think the term TV is used by a lot of people with different 
understandings. But except me nobody has seen the term dtv too 
restrictive, so I'm joining the majority.

On thing I almost forgot: You should add a bandwidth-thing as an integer, 
like the frequency/symbolrate.

For DVB-T we (DiBcom) can basicly run with any channel bandwidth, not only 
5,6,7,8 MHz. And some people are even using it...

Another example: DVB-SH is mentioning explicitly a 1.7 MHz bandwidth in 
the spec (default is 5MHz).

Please consider adapting it.

thanks,
Patrick.
