TV Stations Are Going Digital - Finally
After many delays, analog TV signals will finally cease to broadcast on Thursday, June 12. The original date for the digital transition was February 17, but the Obama administration decided that postponing would enable more Americans to prepare for the switch. If you aren't a cable or satellite TV subscriber, you must acquire a converter box in order to enjoy uninterrupted local television service. Are you ready to make the switch?
The current state of the economy doesn't allow for many luxuries, but local programming is a necessity. Keeping up-to-date with news and weather conditions affecting your community is important. Affordable solutions are available - just do some research on the Internet! Many satellite TV providers offer affordable entertainment packages, and for those on a super-tight budget, $40 vouchers are available at www.dtv2009.gov.
