DTV Coupon Program Out of Money

Posted by timothy on from the time-to-nelson-laugh-at-the-government dept.

Thelasko writes "It appears that the US Government's digital converter box program is running out of money. If you sign up after the program runs out of money, you will receive your voucher if the program receives more funding. Older analog televisions will no longer work without a converter box after February 17."
