Leave it to our government to screw it up!!! As I read it, if you are not ready for digital NOW, you don't have any idea if you will have TV service on 2/18 or any given day after that date. Talk about russian roulette!!! You might have it, but the guy two or three counties over might lose his. Good old government. Well, they said there would be change!!Bernie
Owww -- That spinnin' thang hurt!!Comment

The info on the signal won't change the skip properties but if most of the stations go UHF then they won't skip. Any stations that switch the low VHF signal to digital will still skip but the signal might not be strong enough to be viewable.Comment

I think that TV as an essential service is hysterical. Until I was about 12 we had a 13" black and white and got 5 fuzzy channels. One night during Laverne & Shirley, my dad said "This is crap," we never saw the TV again. I didn't have TV for almost 20 years and didn't miss it.
Cable isn't an option here since we live out of town, so we have DirecTV and a 19" RCA. Of our 250 channels, I watch HGTV or DIY for about half an hour on Saturday mornings.
I'm guessing for most of the people who haven't made the switch yet, it's just not a big priority.Chr's

It is mostly the Gov's fault, from what I understand.
First, the product wasn't available and the Gov was handing out coupons.
Then the products were ready, but the coupons people had expired.
Then the government ran out of coupons so people couldn't get them and they were telling people who had expired ones T.S.
Please let someone more competent than this is handling the bailout! Kinda scares the bej.... out of ya, doesn't it?!
