DTV Transition

As you may have heard, all full power television stations will stop broadcasting in analog and switch over to all-digital transmissions at midnight on February 17, 2009, as required by federal law. This transition has been named the "DTV transition" by the government.

Analog-only TV's that receive those stations via antenna won't display them after February 17, 2009 unless you take action (those TV's should continue to display low-power, Class-A and translator TV stations and work with gaming consoles, VCR's, DVD players, etc.).

Here are two easy options to help you through this transition:

Option One:
There is no need to buy a new TV or converter box.  Contact Lycom Communications at (606) 638-3600 to have your current TV's connected to cable. Call today to ask about our special offers.

Option Two:
Replace those TV's or buy converter boxes that will allow them to display DTV signals. The NTIA will provide up to two $40 coupons per household for the purchase of such boxes. To obtain your coupons visit www.dtv2009.gov
