According to the info I have and from what I've read, the set date (for the second time, by Congress 'cause they blew it the first time) is February 17, 2009. That's supposed to be the date that all the analog TV transmitters are shut down as the country goes all digital. No doubt, there'll be some stragglers, as always.

Why cant you change tv stations manually without a remote?

The majority of televisions have some very basic controls on the television itself but they are normally limited to power, volume and channel change. There are often two buttons marked "up" and "down" with a mode button next to them. Pressing the mode button may allow a channel change mode although not all of them have the facility. Local controls on a television have become less important as the facilities offered by the remote have increased. We expect to be able to operate and set up a television from our armchairs. Manufacturers have responded by improving hand controls and removing controls from the television. It certainly means a more convenient control method but makes the television largely useless if the remote is mislaid. Until users demand full controls built into the television, manufacturers are very unlikely to increase the controls on the television itself.


Which tv's need converter box?

TV's only need a converter box if they previously are using antennas to get channels. Otherwise, TV's won't need one at all. Remember: if you are using antennas, be sure to get a converter box before June of 2009. (That is when all TV's will be going digital.) Tv's that do not have a ATSC Digital Tuner will need a converter box to watch over the air broadcast television. And the TRUTH is that some translator stations and low power stations will not change until later. FULL POWER Stations will go to digital on 06-12-2009.

On a Motorola portable radio what is the difference between channel and frequency?

Not only on Motorola Portable radio, but in all radio communications: Frequency is number of cycles (full change circles) per second. When radio device operates on some frequency it requires band of adjacent frequencies to be able to transmit modulation (information) too. To avoid mixing, next transmitter must take some "distance" (higher or lower frequency) far enough from frequency of the first one. According to regulations basic frequencies are "named". Channel number is the name of its frequency given by communication regulations. For example, TV UHF channel 21 takes all frequencies from 512 to 518 MHz (megahertz), channel 22 from 518 to 524 MHz, and so on... CB Radio channels 21 and 22 occupy frequencies from CB band, not from TV band. Tables of channel frequencies within various bands can be easily found by search engines.
