Receiving your current television signal through an antenna?

If you currently receive your television signal through an antenna on your roof or through an antenna inside your house (rabbit ears) and you do not have a television set that is digital ready (it must have an ATSC tuner), you will need to get a digital converter box. In general, the old antenna you have now will work, but the new digital signal it is receiving has to be converted before it can be plugged into your old television set.

These boxes are available for purchase. The National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) will provide $40 coupons to help purchase these boxes. There is a limit of 2 coupons per household.

Your old analog television will work with all your vcr’s, dvd players and gaming machines. You can check with the manufacturer to see if your television is digital ready.
