Will digital-to-analog television signal converters be available? I heard the government would be helping out. Can you explain?
Answer: In February 2009, all television broadcasts will go digital. Owners of analog televisions will need a digital conversion box. Otherwise, you won't be able to receive over-the-air television signals. This issue only applies to those using an antenna. Converter boxes will be widely available before the transition. The government has a program to help. It's offering coupons to offset the cost of a converter box. You must apply for a coupon and can find a link to the program at www.tulsaworld.com/komandonews.
