Public service reminder: Digital TV transition final next week, local TV stations will broadcast only in digital after June 12

Off-topic but timely information I posted at my GrampsCare website: One Week Left (to June 12) before Digital Transition is Complete... Are You Ready? (6/5/09). Good for everyone to know whether or not you take care of a "Gramps". At first I thought we were okay too, but realized if the cable goes out in a bad storm, we'll have no backup way to access local TV as it's all going digital in a week, June 12.

Of course having a digital-ready TV is the best, otherwise a converter box will be needed.

Then there's always the radio of course!

The FCC's website with info on the transition is http://www.dtv.gov/:
