Have you heard all the talk about not be able to watch television if you don't get a digital tv? What is required by the FCC is that all "over the air" television broadcast transmission change over to digital by 2009.
What this means is if you don't have a dgital tuner you won't be able to tune in television channels with an antenna. You will either have to buy a digital tuner box or a new television with a digital tuner built in.
The government is supposedly going to be providing some sort of voucher program to help people, but we'll have to wait and see what happens with that.
You will also need to check the tuner on your dvd or vhs recorder. If they don't have a digital tuner then you will have to use the component, composite or s-video inputs on you recorder. Most people will probably do this anyway,
but it is still something to be aware of. With the new digital televisions one thin some people may notice is an audio delay. That's right the video may be slightly off from the audio. This is usually noticed when an sound system is used instead of the speakers on the television.
If you are concerned about purchasing new equipment ask the salespeople at your local stores or you can also visit our FORUMS.
You should also check out the FCC's website dtv.gov. It's a great website to help you get your bearings in the confusing world of digital television.
