News About Analog TVs

Analog is disappearing from the airwaves.

As of Feb. 18, 2009, TVs that use analog and/or antennas will need to be upgraded to watch the new HD channels. Owners of these "antique" sets will be able to apply for goverment help to pay for converter boxes. For more info on how to obtain that "help" ($40 check) see http://www.dtv.gov/.
