NewsChannel Nine Switching To Digital Today
Viewers will no longer be able to watch with an analog signal
June 11, 2009 - 3:22pm
At 12:30 this afternoon, NewsChannel 9 will join television stations around the country and turn off its analog signal. Today's transition ends a six-decade era for analog broadcasting.
When that happens, millions of viewers could be left in the dark.
The F.C.C. says as many as 3 million people have not hooked up their converter boxes. They have more than 4,000 operators on stand-by to answer calls from confused viewers.
If your television is hooked up to cable or satellite feeds, you're good to go.
If not, you'll need to get a converter box to pick up the new digital frequencies.
I bought my converter box months ago and whenever a test was runned I felt I was ready for the dtv convertion, but now that the day is here I get every channel on my converter box except kvia and ktsm. What is going on. I have alredy rescanned several times and I get nothing. One of the converter box is not even showing the programing in color it's only in black and white and it was not like that before today. The converter box was working fine before today.
