Answers:    Ai most, you will own to buy a converter using a $40 coupon from the government. They aren't getting rid of free TV. They are closing moments analog TV in February of 2009, but surrounded by January 2008, we can apply to the government for two coupons worth $40 respectively off of the price (about $60) of two converters which will allow you to verbs to watch Over The Air (OTA) TV on the ancient analog sets. You don't have to buy a unsullied TV. You also don't have to buy a "digital" antenna-there is no such thing-they're adjectives antennas. Because the digital TV which is replacing the old analog OTA is mostly on UHF channel rather than VHF, you may find that your existing antenna isn't well-mannered enough and you may hold to replace it. For those with satellite or cable, they are not effect. Satellite is not changing and cable must verbs to carry the local over the atmosphere channels within analog form, or supply converters, until at least 2012.

The reson for the change is that digital broadcasting allows for more programs to be sqeezed into matching space than you can with analog, not to mention allowing for HDTV to be broadcast-and it is mortal broadcast right now.
IF you enjoy the 5 wire COMPONENT input jacks on the wager on of your TV it will recieve an HD signal....

The Tuner /RF coaxial cable is only Analog, so you would want a converter box to use Channel 3.

In either travel case, you will NEED a box from Cable, Satellite companys OR you will need to buy your own box for local antenna...
