Will you need a digital coverter to keep your TV after this year?
The move to digital television is just a year away. If you're not ready, it the TV you are watching right now could go dark.
The size and picture quality of our modern TVs is incredible. To pull it off these fancy sets have gone from an old fashioned analog signal to modern digital.
Changes that take affect in 2009 that will turn off the analog picture signal. Old TV sets won't work unless you get a special digital converter box.
The converter boxes can cost anywhere from $60 to $150 dollars depending on brand and features. The government will help by giving you a coupon for $40.
For people who get their TV signal from cable or satellite the special converter box probably won't be necessary, but if you bring in your signal from antennas, it's either buy a converter or buy a new TV.
