"According to FCC rules, all full power stations on channels 2-51 must
convert to digital by the beginning of 2007, with an escape clause that 85%
of receivers in the service area must be "capable" of receiving digital
signals. . . .
As of January 2004, indications from industry and FCC officials including
its chairman are that the cutoff date for digital-only broadcasts will not
meet the intended 2007 and the actual timeline for analog shutoff in the US
will realistically be in the 2010-2015 timeframe."
I guess I may get a few more years out of my current 4 analog tvs, 6 analog
vcrs (unused except to watch older vhs tapes) and 4 analog PVRs (computer
based).
