The TVs without a converter box or digital signal will only be able to pick up analog channels, so once they change all of the channels to digital, the TV cannot pick up any channels, most likely resulting in snow.
You will not be able to watch TV shows with them unless you get a digital converter box. You can get a coupon from the government worth $40 twoards the box.

Older TV sets use analog signals. In February, all TV signals that are now analog will become digital because it gives more efficient use of the bandwidth. Analog sets will not receive and interpret the images from a digital transmission. It's the same reason you can't use your old TV as a computer monitor.
they are related, but one might not be causing the other.
In standard definition TV sets, analog covers most anything picture related plus the audio, once the FM signal is demodulated. In the new HDTV (digital sets) about the only portion of the TV is the sound system once it's been separated from the digital audio stream.

A Digital Television (DTV) Converter Box is an electronic device that converts the new free over-the-air digital signal into an analog signal viewable on older "analog" television set. The digital to analog converter box connects your antenna or rabbit ears to your TV set. It will allow you to continue watching TV after February 17, 2009, the day the transition to "all digital" takes place. A digital to analog converter box will not give you a digital picture on an analog TV set. Analog TV sets using the set top boxes will show digital broadcasts, but not in the full picture quality of digital TV. However, your picture will be better than it was with the old analog signal. Technically speaking about picture quality: The reason the picture quality won't be as good on an analog TV set is because of the display resolution. Analog TV screens aren't designed to display the same level of picture quality and resolution that is found in the digital TV signal.
