Free Digital TV Converter Box $40 Voucher.

[Sadoun]

What is the digital television transition?
At midnight on February 17, 2009, all full-power television stations in the United States will stop broadcasting in analog and switch to 100% digital broadcasting. Digital broadcasting promises to provide a clearer picture and more programming options and will free up airwaves for use by emergency responders.

What is the TV Converter Box Coupon Program?
Congress created the TV Converter Box Coupon Program for households wishing to keep using their analog TV sets after February 17, 2009. The Program allows U.S. households to obtain up to two coupons, each worth $40, that can be applied toward the cost of eligible converter boxes. A TV connected to cable, satellite or other pay TV service does not require a TV converter box from this program.

Consumers have a variety of options. Options to explore include:

1. Keep your existing analog TV and purchase a TV converter box. A converter box plugs into your TV and will keep it working after Feb. 17, 2009, or
2. Connect to cable, satellite or other pay service, or
3. Purchase a television with a digital tuner.

Does anyone know criteria for getting discount cards? I applied and was only allowed one for home and none for my shop location. How do they determine who gets how many as I have heard of others getting 2-3 cards?

I believe it's TWO coupons per physical address. So if you have two address, you should be able to get 2 x 2 = FOUR coupons.

nope... my business location was not approved for even a single box. My home only one box coupon.

oh well, maybe there are some caveats with that... all I know is I was able to get two coupons for my place.
