DTV

On February 17, 2009 the last analog television signal will be broadcast. I just read about it today but, apparently, everyone in the universe knew about it before I did.

The FCC is mandating a total switch to Digital TV in an attempt to free up broadcast spectrum for public safety communications and for sale to companies offering wireless broadband. Televisions without an internal digital tuner will not pick up signals after the change over.

For you neurotic television watchers, the FCC has a countdown clock available at http://www.dtv.gov/
