DTV TRANSITION

Hey television viewers, in less than 2 days...television will be going all digital. Analog broadcasting will become a distant memory. This means all television stations in the United States will broadcast in digital format. More channels, clearer pictures, and better sound. If you have cable, you're already set. If you have satellite, you're already set. If you have a tv with a digital tuner, you're already set, too. For those people whose tv sets have an antenna ("rabbit ears, a converter box has to be connected to the tv to watch television. Time is ticking away, you must take immediate action or else your tv will become obsolete.

You got three options if you want to continue watching television after this Friday--June 12th

1) Buy a converter box for your tv or

2) Buy a tv with a built in digital tuner or

3) Subscribe to cable or satellite

Remember, when you connected your converter box--scan to capture the channels available--rescan occasionally when new digital channels go on the air
