The nationwide switch to digital television broadcasting was
complete on June 12, 2009. Analog-only television sets that
receive TV programming through an antenna now need a
converter box to continue to receive over-the-air TV. Watch your
local stations to find out when they will turn off their analog
signal and switch to digital-only broadcasting. Analog-only TVs
should continue to work as before to receive low power, Class
A or translator television stations and with cable and satellite
TV services, gaming consoles, VCRs, DVD players, and similar
products.
