is your TV ready?

RACER X · 01-06-2009, 06:36 PM

so Houston is one of the first large cities to go all digital w/ TV signals in the next few weeks.

news said something like ~17% of the population ran rabbit ears and ~8% weren't sure if their TV's would "decode" a digital signal.

basicailly if you have cable/DSL type cable (uverse)/satalite your good togo

so are you ready?

yes. All set for the TV's that use over-air broadcasting.

Ed, I doubt many people that use an internet forum are still using rabbit ears. For those that are, it's doubtful they are so technology dumb they haven't noticed the 15,000 public service messages about needing a digital converter if you still watch over-the-air TV.
