By law, full-power television stations nationwide must stop using the old method of transmitting TV signals known as analog and begin broadcasting exclusively in a digital format on June 12th, 2009. Digitall television (DTV) is an innovative type of broadcasting technology that will give you crystal-clear pictures and sound, and more programming choices than ever before.

DTV is available now. Most full-power stations in the country are already broadcasting in digital today.

While the benefits of DTV are remarkable, millions of households risk losing television reception unless they take the easy steps to receive a digital signal. The documents to the right and the links to the government's DTV websites will help make the transition easier.
