Arrow Last Call for Analog TV
Ready or not the analog deadline is almost here. Although many TV networks have already switched to digital broadcasts there are still many hold-outs among major networks that have kept analog service. It seems the government is serious about Friday’s deadline. Even President Barack Obama promises it’s for real this time.


Discuss "Last Call for Analog TV" here. Read the article.

I forgot about this, since I have a converter box.

I guess the delivery of my new TV tomorrow is good timing.

Unfortunately, "digital" doesn't equal "HD." However, it's a required step to get there, so it's nice. I really like the increased clarity of the over-the-air picture versus analog. Tremendous improvement (once I could get the signal ).

The Panasonic TC-P50G10. I took the advice of people on here (you being no small player) and went with plasma. I'm looking forward to it!

Fear not. I picked up my first six-pack of Harp about a week or so ago (also because of you ). Tasty, tasty. I'll try to carry on the legacy.

EDIT: Btw, are you trying to cut back on the drinking? If so, kudos. I'm about a one-beer-a-night guy, myself. Just too much of a lightweight.

Gratz Adam, I am a Panny Plasma fan myself. I enjoy one of last year's, slightly older.

Harp is a good choice also.
