On Feb. 17, the nation's television broadcast system is scheduled to go all-digital, offering more enhanced images and doing away with older analog signals.
How do I get the digital converter box or the coupons for one? Where do I go? Who do I call?
Jonathan Collegio from the National Association of Broadcasters responds:
The U.S. Commerce Department manages the TV converter box coupon program. Consumers can apply for up to two $40 coupons per household by calling 1-888-DTV-2009 (1-888-388-2009), by applying online at www.DTV2009.gov or by mailing an application to P.O. Box 2000, Portland, OR 97208-2000. Applicants will receive their coupons in the mail. Currently, there is a waiting list for coupons.
