 :tickedoff:  I think this whole idea sucks anyway........its all a way to get money to the place that sell TV's and or convertor boxes...

Not many can even afford 13 bucks after the 40 buck coupon.......and why the hell do they put an expiration date of them....that is really smart...but then didnt our government think this whole thing up......

and not to mention they only allow 2 coupons per household....that another smart a****** idea......people have more then 2 tv's in there home......hell i have a tv on my treadmill.....gonna have to put a convertor box on it....also game systems and  dvd players and VCR's will also need this convertor box if its not run through a dish.......

another brilliant idea from your government..... Angry

with the gas slowly going back up and more and more gettin laid off and losing there homes hell what do they need a convertor box for......

ok off my soap box now.....

 :DI agree with ya darth.  Luckily, we have dish.  But like you said, even with the coupons, some people can't afford it.  Another stupid idea!

 Angry Since they have decided to delay the cut off date for the analog signal......there will still be thousands of people not ready in june ......the government just dont get it....

People cant afford to run out and get a new tv......and sometimes its hard to use those coupons up before they expire.....

the stores cant keep the convertor boxes on the shelves......one of my coupons expired before i got to use it ...while waiting for wally world to get some more of the convertor boxes in my last coupon expired.....

I dont get why the stations have to stop broadcasting in analog....whats the difference......broadcast in both....anyone know why they cant do this...or why the government is sticking there noses in and making the stations stop broadcasting in analog.... Angry
