As sovereign entities, some governments can be sued only if they permit you to do so. Whether or not it is possible depends on the jurisdiction you are in.
Suing any government for moving to digital television would be futile and unwarranted. For a whole host of technical and commercial reasons, digital television offers advantages over analog including such features as HD broadcasting, lower noise and distortion, additional data services and the ability to receive more channels.
Even if digital television wasn't an improvement, no government has forced anyone to use digital television. Each of us has a choice and if we decide that we don't want digital television we are completely free not to watch it.
Technology moves on. Common products become obsolete and new products take their place. That analog television has had its day, is no surprise. The US and UK markets have both had a decade to make the switch. Both governments have offered assistance such as a free set top box in the US to ease the transition and help lines to offer advice.
Perhaps then, one might consider suing for the cost of a second set top box for your second television. The $20 that might be won in a judgment will go some way to covering the cost of parking your car while at the hearing.
