Digital Future for TV

People thinking of buying a TV this holiday season may want to consider whether they will want to watch free, over-the-air programming. On Feb. 17, 2009, all television stations in the US will stop broadcasting in analog and will begin broadcasting in digital format only.

What does this mean for us consumers? If you buy or own a TV without digital capacity, you will need to obtain a digital converter box to continue to receive free local programming. Beginning in 2008, the Federal Government will offer a max of two $40 vouchers per household to be used to purchase converter boxes. If you have a digital TV you don't need to change anything. Note that a high definition TV is not the same as a digital TV - you need a transmitter to get the digital signal (or a converter).

The federal government began this program to free up some of the broadcasting to be used for public safety transmissions. Digital television will also offer less interference and better picture quality.

To apply for a converter box coupon, you can call 1-888-388-2009 or visit dtv.gov. The coupons are available on a first come, first serve basis until the program reaches $890 million total.
