Is your television programming digital yet?
So it seems I jumped the gun a little bit by saying that the digital television transition won't happen until June 12. In reality, the FCC is allowing television stations to go ahead with the transition if they are ready and still want to transition early.
If you are interested in finding out whether or not your local television stations are transitioning, the FCC is maintaining a list on their web site of all full-power television stations that are terminating their analog service before or on February 17. I checked and none of the major stations in the Indianapolis area are pulling the trigger early. So it looks like it's June 12 for me.
For my readers outside the Indianapolis area who watch television stations that are transitioning early, I'd love to hear how the transition went for you. Leave a comment below and let me know.
