Analog TV across the country will disappear three times on May 21st, as the FCC wants to send a strong signal to viewers that analog broadcasting is about to end.
Stations are being asked to turn off analog at 7:30am, 12:30pm, and 6:30pm. The shutoff will last five minutes each time. Viewers have repeatedly been urged to take action to make sure at least one television set in their home is equipped to receive a digital television signal. DTV converter boxes can be purchased at most electronic stores for about $40 to $70 dollars - depending upon options. $40 government coupons are available here.
