On 17 February 2009, federal law requires all full-power television
stations in the United States to cease analogue broadcasting,
enabling the government to reclaim valuable spectrum that the
broadcasters currently use for analogue broadcasts. This change,
often referred to as the digital television (DTV) transition,
requires action by broadcasters and consumers to ensure broadcast
television signals are still available and viewable. The National
Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) created a
program to subsidise consumers' purchases of digital-to-analogue
converter boxes. After the transition, households with analogue
sets that rely on over-the-air broadcast signals must take action
or they will lose television service, but some households might not
be aware of this potential disruption.
