    Digital Switchover Still February 17th

    The House of Representatives have defeated the bill to move the DTV switch until June, this means that the Digital Switchover will still happen on February 17th.

    I think that is fantastic, if people that rely on OTA tv then they should know by now how to get the box's There own fault if they don't have one yet. I say Horray...Full power digital coming soon to all stations.
    Dishdvr, AT250, Max for a $.01, Ultimate HD with locals
    Panasonic 42" plasma OTA recieving 4 of 5 locals.

    I hope it is still defeated. IT is stupid to waste anymore time on the transition. It is time to move into the 21st century and end the 1950's analog signal.

    The news says it's defeated. Here is a link:
    House Votes Against Delaying Switch to Digital TV - washingtonpost.com




    Yes, the bill could be brought up again and again, but for right now it is NOT passed. There is not much time now to pass a bill.

    My System:
    Diish Network- 2 Dish 500's (110, 119, 61.5), ViP 612 & Vip 222

    Switched to Dish Network from Directv on 9/25/09 & Best Move I have ever made!
