Digital Television Transition
The Digital Television Transition and Public Safety Act of 2005 requires full-power television stations to cease analog broadcasts and switch to digital after February 17, 2009. The Act authorizes Commerce’s National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) to create the TV Converter Box Coupon Program, which is funded by the $19 billion airwaves auction and not tax dollars.
For consumers choosing the converter box option, the TV Converter Box Coupon Program permits all households to request up to two coupons—each worth $40—toward the purchase of certified converter boxes. Coupons may be requested until March 31, 2009, or while supplies last.Consumers can purchase a converter box at one of the more than 29,000 participating local, phone or online retailers. Coupon applications can take several weeks to process and mail so consumers opting to purchase a converter box should act now, and should call stores before shopping to ensure the desired converter box is available.Converter boxes generally cost between $45 and $80 and coupons expire 90 days from the date they are mailed.
Residents of licensed nursing homes, intermediate care facilities, assisted living facilities and households that use a post office box for mail delivery will be eligible to request coupons from the TV Converter Box Coupon Program. The rule change takes effect 30 days after publication in the Federal Register.
For more information about the Coupon Program, please visit www.DTV2009.gov and for questions about the DTV transition, go to www.dtv.gov or call 1-888-CALL-FCC.
