Gearing Up for the Digital Television Transition
 

On February 17, 2009, television stations, which currently broadcast in analog and digital format, will transmit only digital signals.

Consumers with a digital television will continue to enjoy their programming after February 17, 2009.  However, those with analog televisions will need a digital-to-analog converter box to continue to watch broadcast television from that date forward.

For more information about the digital transition visit www.dtv.gov or contact the Federal Communications Commission by calling toll-free at 1-888-225-5322 or toll-free through TTY at 1-888-835-5322.
