DTV STB Coupon Deadline Nears Bookmark and Share
July 30, 2009 — Most of our readers probably don't care, but just in case you know someone with an analog TV that still hasn't got a source of digital signals, tomorrow is a big day. It's the last day when the federal government will be handing out $40 subsidy coupons to offset the cost of a set-top box that would keep an old analog TV running.

If you (and your loved ones) have a DTV, cable service, satellite service, or have already bought a DTV converter box, don't worry. But if an analog TV among your circle of acquaintances needs the box, go to dtv2009.gov and file an application before midnight tomorrow night.

According to Nielsen, the percentage of DTV-unready U.S. households has dropped to 1.1 percent, compared to 6.8 percent at the beginning of the year.
