DTV


Question Posted Friday April 18 2008, 11:47 pm

Hey,
Okay, its not really computers, but I keep seeing the commercials on american stations about the change to DTV. I live in canada, but like 85% of my television channels are american. So What I want to know, is if the switch thing is going to affect me. And if it does affect canadians, how does it affect them, and what do you need to do in order to ensure that nothing is going to happen to my television?
Thanks!!

The change only affects antenna reception. Dish and cable are not affected. If you have that old type of antenna and your TV doesn't support digital, then the shows broadcast from America will not come in. You'll need to get a digital converter.

All the canadian stations and stuff are going to switch in 2010 aswell, but its mostly for people who have antenna's and really old televisions. If your tv is relitively new then you shouldn't have to worry.
