lol, mandatory DTV transition

[Sophia Esteed]

After Feb '09, analog TVs will no longer work and all stations will broadcast exclusively in digital.

Okay, since my family are Comcast customers, Comcast says we have "nothing to worry about" but I'm still concerned. Won't we need new TV models? What will we need?

Nothing... its only for people who use antennas to get their signal out of the airways....

cable, satelite, etc are excluded as they all have digital recievers/converters anyway.

If you have regular cable, you need some box or some shit. We have coupons lol

 

[Forever Atlas]

^ Oh yeah forgot about that... most companies use the boxes now n days but I guess some dont

You'll be fine, and the good news is that it'll free up a LOT of waves. Which will probably be used to reach more people with highspeed internet.
