Digital Broadcasting
By Fanatical Host
Currently 22% of the United States population relies solely on analog broadcasts to view network television. A new law,Title III-Digital Television Transition and Public Safety Act, will change all that beginning February 17 2009. The law requires that all broadcasters cease analog broadcasting signals February 18 2009. Digital broadcasts must be in place by midnight, February 17, 2009.
Are you one of the 22% watching ABC, CBS, or NBC with your rabbit ears or outdoor antenna? If you are and do not take steps to adapt your old analog television, you may find yourself without your favorite shows! The solution is very easy, and luckily you will make the switchover and receive better than ever picture quality. All you need is a set top Digital to Analog Converter Box. You can purchase one online or at your favorite electronics store. Since your old antenna is the same as an HDTV antenna, you can try it out to see if you receive the digital broadcasts. Houses, trees and your distance from the signal source will influence your reception quality. If you need help with antenna selection and reception try Antenna Web.
The new law also has provisions to give every household up to two $40.00 coupons good towards the purchase of approved Digital to Analog Converters. The funds are limited,so do not wait until the last moment to apply. Upon receipt you have 90 days to redeem the coupons. Some online retailer's allow you to redeem your coupons online during the converter box purchase.
