But in line with getting free TV; I have recently purchased a Digital Receiver to capture Terrestrial Digital Television (TDT).
Here in Spain, all analog TV will cease in two years and I believe by 2009 it will not exist in the US either.
All our stations, except a couple of local city stations, currently put out a digital signal as well as the analog signal, so if you have a digital receiver you can pick up the digital signal which is much clearer than the analog.
Also, in my case, I receive 12 more stations than are possible with analog reception in this location . Apart from the Digital Receiver which costs about $50-$60, you get the regular and the extra stations free.
I do not know about America but I imagine the same thing obtains there.
Thank you Cardi for the update!
