Hollywood, FL (PRWEB) May 27, 2009 -- As the deadline for all television stations to stop analog broadcasting and begin broadcasting only in digital approaches, TV viewers need to prepare for the digital TV conversion switch by either purchasing a digital television conversion box or ensuring they have a digital cable or a TV set with a digital tuner.
ReStockIt.com, one of the leading online retailers of electronics and computer accessories, makes it easy for consumers to find the best analog TV converters by offering tips on selecting turners and free shipping on most Sharp digital ready television sets.
Analog television sets receiving free TV using an antenna will not work after stations stop analog broadcasting, which will occur no later than June 12, 2009. Television viewers with these sets that are not connected to a pay TV service need to take action now by finding the best analog TV converters to fit their needs.
TV Viewers have the following options:
- Keep existing analog TV and purchase a digital television conversion box with or without a government coupon. A digital television conversion box plugs into your TV and will keep it working after your local stations stop analog
- Connect to cable, satellite or other pay service, or
- Purchase a television with a digital tuner
Here are some general guidelines that may help:
Television sets purchased before 1998 most likely do not have a digital tuner and a digital television conversion box is needed. Almost every TV set made before 1998 was a traditional "analog" set. Big-screen, projection TV purchased between 1998 and 2004 may have a built-in digital tuner, but the chances aren't great. Only a limited percentage of projection TV sets (and generally only those 42 inches in diameter or larger) included digital tuners before 2004.
For new TV sets purchased since 2004, chances of having a built-in digital tuner and not needing a digital television converter box improve dramatically. Starting in 2004, many of the TV sets sold at popular electronics stores feature digital tuners. But it's not a sure thing. Even some of the newer TV sets are purely display monitors that lack the internal circuitry needed to pick up digital broadcasts. Usually these sets have been advertised as "HD-ready" or "HDTV monitor" sets. That means they can display digital and high-definition signals, but they need help getting those signals in the first place. These sets still need a digital television conversion box or a cable TV connection.
