I don't know how strong the regular operation signal would be (or is if already

anything.
Is it possible to "see" digital signals on analog TV, i.e. does it
look different to normal static?

From my understanding, the digital TV signals will look like static. If you can connect at osciliscope which had an FFT built into it to the output of your TV tuner and you tuned through the channels, you could spot the digital signals because there would be signal there (either 6,7 or 8 Mhz wide signal looking like a square hump) but your TV would not be able to see it.
Maybe TV's can see something. I don't know, I'm in the U.S.
