The ABC's of HDTV

By February 17, 2009, the nation will complete the change-over from television as we know it to the new digital format. If you receive TV signals through a rooftop antenna or rabbit ears on top of your set and you currently do not subscribe to cable or satellite, you will no longer have television service in your home. In order to continue receiving TV programming, you can do one of the following:

  1. Purchase a converter box for each television in your home that receives TV signals through an antenna; you can save money on this option through the federal government's Converter Box Coupon Program. For information, visit http://www.ntia.doc.gov/dtvcoupon or call toll-free 1-888-DTV-2009;

    -OR-

  2. Purchase a new television set with a built-in digital tuner;

    -OR-

  3. Subscribe to a cable or satellite service that carries the channels you want to watch.
