Over the Air DTV
What is Digital Television (DTV)?
DTV, also known as Digital Television or High Definition TV (HDTV) is a mandated conversion for all television broadcasters in the United States. Congress has set February 17, 2009 as the final date to end all over-the-air analog broadcasts. All over-the-air viewers would need to have digital television set or converter box in order to watch television.
What is Over-The-Air (OTA) Programming?
"Over-the-air" refers to programming broadcast via the public airwaves. In layman's terms, it means any program you currently watch by means of an antenna (as opposed to a cable system or satellite dish). This may include affiliates of ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX, WB, PBS and independent local broadcasters. Some programmings are only offer over the air.
What Do I Need To Receive AAT TV Programming on DTV?
All you need is a Digital television / HD set with a built-in ATSC tuner. For older/analog television sets, an ATSC digital-to-analog set-top converter box is required. Similarly both digital and analog TV sets need an external antenna to receive programming.
How will I know if my specific TV model is compatible?
If you purchased your current analog TV before 2004, it does require the addition of a converter box to receive and display DTV signals.
Beginning in 2006, there has been an introduction in the number of digital-tuner equipped TVs introduced to the marketplace. These TVs will not be affected by the pending changes.
Any set sold under the classifications "HD-Ready" or "HDTV Monitor" does not include a built-in ATSC tuner to receive digital TV signals. These sets require the addition of an HD source (ATSC over-the-air receiver with antenna, or a cable or satellite receiver that is capable of high-definition output) to deliver a true HDTV picture.
Sets sold as "EDTV" or "SDTV" may have the capacity to receive HDTV signals, but can only display such content at a reduced resolution. Recently, the FCC has begun requiring (on a phased-in basis) that larger TVs with analog tuners also be marketed with built-in or separate ATSC tuners. Smaller TVs will follow in later phases. So the newer your TV, the better the chance you won't be affected.
