A local family makes the digital switch

As TV stations were busy making the digital switch at noon today, some local families were glued to their televisions, waiting to see what would happen.

William and Jean Finnegan bought their converter box about two months ago, and have been impressed with the digital technology ever since.

William Finnegan stated, “I only got four channels, now with the converter box, I get 11 channels crystal clear.”

At first, William was concerned about hooking it up, but that quickly changed.

“Forget reading the instructions, take it out of the box and there’s only one place to put the box and the antenna and there’s nothing else to think about,” said Mr. Finnegan.

For people that use an antenna, but didn’t buy or hook up a converter box properly, they’re probably seeing a message stating the proper equipment needed for the signal. Not too worry, when the converter box is correctly hooked up, the picture should be clear.
