Get Coupons to Convert your TV from Analog to Digital

Follow up to January 2, 2008 posting, U.S. Households Can Now Request Digital-to-Analog Converter Box Coupons, the TV Converter Program Website: “On February 17, 2009, television stations in the United States will stop broadcasting in analog and switch to 100% digital broadcasting. At that time, you can watch TV using one of the following options:

  • Keep your existing analog TV and purchase a converter box.
  • Keep your existing analog TV and use cable, satellite, or another pay service (if you already have pay TV services, your TV viewing will be uninterrupted).
  • Use a TV with a digital tuner.
  • If you plan to continue using analog televisions without any pay TV services, you can apply for up to two coupons per household to use towards the purchase of converter boxes. The coupons, which are being provided by the federal government, are worth $40 each.”
