The change in broadcasting signals has many stations thinking up ways to educate their viewers in order not to lose them when transmissions begin being sent in a digital format.
One of the Boston channels has decided the best way to deal with this is for them to educate viewers and to educated them they have planned a weekend of digital education programs. These programs have been setup to explain how things will change, what the viewer will need to do in order to keep seeing these stations in their home, such as purchasing this converter box, going with a satellite tv provider or a cable provider.
They have also designed one program that will have telephone and email so that the viewers will be able to ask questions or air their concerns.
In another effort to educate the viewer there will also be a five hour event at the Museum of Science to explain this change and there will also be a one hour live web cast online for viewers that would rather be educated online.
This channel has commented that this change from analog to digital will be the largest broadcasting change since color television. Direct TV Deals are going to even get better as this time closes in.
