Ready for Pure Digital TV? - Bye Bye Analog!

If you have not heard yet, Analog TV signals are set to be turned off around the US, February 2009. This means that if you have rabbit ears or an older TV not connected to cable, you will lose your TV signals on this date. Newer digital signals will be broadcast, but only new TVs with a digital tuner, such as HD TVs, will be the only televisions that can receive signals. Take a look at the government TV Converter Box Program site if you want a coupon towards $40 off of a converter box that hooks to your old TV, to enable you to receive the digital signals. Be warned you have 90 days to use the coupon, so don't get it too soon. Also read to get more in depth information about this process.
