Digital transmistion

[radiotvnut]

Yes, your cable company should be able to supply you with a digital cable box for use with your analog TV.

The last day for over the air analog TV broadcast will be 2/17/09. After that date, you will need a converter box to convert the digital off air signal to an analog signal that your set can use.

The cable companies are not bound by law to go all digital. For now, they can use whatever method (analog or digital) for delivery that they choose for as long as they want.

Keep in mind that digital off air signals and digital cable signals are different and the converter boxes for each signal type are not interchangeable.

All you would need to do is connect the converter box to the TV and set the channel selector to channel 3. The converter box will be your tuner and will add remote control channel change to your set.

I currently receive analog cable from C***ast and will continue to do so until I have no other choice.
