Abstract: Faster channel change time in ATSC such as ATSC 3.0 is effected by using the native tuner of a display device to present a currently demanded channel and a second tuner, which can be dongle-based, to tune/scan preemptively in the background based upon heuristics such as usage pattern of the user. If the user is pressing channel-up key using a remote control, the second tuner can be scanning and tuning the next channel in the channel map to preemptively tune to a second channel likely to be desired by the user for immediate presentation of that channel through the second tuner.

Abstract: Improvements in a ladder securing device for a tree, or a pole to safely secure a ladder to a tree or pole from the ground before a user ascends the ladder. The securing device is loosely fastened around the tree or pole and then lifted with the ladder to the highest position. This ensures that all the ladder raising, and rope or strap positioning is performed from the ground level. An additional tightening feature may be placed at or near the top of the ladder or at one or more positions of the ladder so the user can make any additional adjustments as they ascend, and the position of a tree may change based upon the load of the ladder on the tree. The user releases rope cord or strap from the ground after they are no longer on the ladder.
