Digital is clearer----when it works. I bought a digital ready t-v last year so I could see how it works and experiment in advance. I used to have just rabbit ears and I could reliably get stations that are 100 miles away. I bought an indoor digital antenna and now I have to reposition the antenna for each station. And I cannot get any station that is more that 25 Miles away. When the govt. required the digital transistion, they should have required the stations to have a powerful enough signal to reach all areas that could be reached with their analog signal. By the way, my parents have an outdoor antenna, but can't get any more stations than I can get. The multi channels is good, but I am upset that both of my battery operated t-v's are useless. I paid less than $75 for them, but a hand held digital t-v costs over $200. More than a 13" digital. Somethings wrong with that picture. (No pun intended). Also I used to listen to channel 6 on 87.7 FM in my car, But not that's gone. (No con

to the person who said that they did not think 50.00 would make a difference in someones financs. Boy are you a lucky person to never have had to live tike that. believe me, there are people where even 5.00 makes a huge difference! I am disabled and my income now, is so low I could not even afford gas, much less a car, among other things. Every dime that had been saved for so long disappeared to medica bills. nothing is left, So, count your blessings that it has never been you!

Everyone was Warned about the Digital TV Conversion for over a Year! Alot of people are still waiting for their Discount Coupon because they're too Cheap to buy the Digital TV Convertors outright! I bought 2 Insignia Digital TV Convertors without the Coupon! Each costs me about $50.00! Is getting the Discount Coupon really going to make that much of a difference in people's Finances? I highly Doubt it!

I got my TV converter and after the $40 coupon it only cost $25. You don't need to buy a new TV. Digitial TV comes in crystal clear; like free cable. I watch most of my channels in digital. Unfortunately I still can't get Channel 13, WNET (PBS) from New York City yet in digital (61), only in analog. A few channels you could get in analog do not come in clearly. Also, we had to move the antenna from inside to outside to get digital, we also needed to buy an antenna amplifier as well. Its good to get digital early to work out the kinks in the system. I am hoping that television stations will boost their digital signals as well.

They should all be put in jail for treason for breaking the law of Congress. Who do they think they are not waiting as voted on by Congress?

I'm sure once the new deadline gets closer there will be a couple of households not ready so the government will delay it again.
