| Important Information for 2009 Broadcast Channel Changes |
|
Congress passed a law on February 1, 2006, setting a final deadline for the Digital Television (DTV) transition of February 17, 2009. Most television stations will continue broadcasting both analog and digital programming until February 17, 2009, when all analog broadcasting will stop. Analog TVs receiving over-the-air programming will still work after that date, but owners of these TVs will need to buy converter boxes to change digital broadcasts into analog format. Converter boxes will be available from consumer electronic products retailers at that time. |
|
Cable and satellite subscribers with analog TVs should contact their service providers about obtaining converter boxes for the DTV transition.The final transition is February 2009. At that point, broadcasting the current “analog” channels will end and that spectrum will be put to other uses. Until the transition to DTV is complete, television stations will continue broadcasting on both their digital
and analog channels. Get Your Free $40 DTV Coupon |
