Are You Ready?

How Will You Be Impacted?

Congress has pushed back its mandate that the last day for transmissions to be broadcast in analog by 4 months to the date of June 12, 2009. Transmissions will be in digital only after that date. If you reading the Gospel Messenger Blog, the type of browser you use is very important. A digital browser will allow you to continue to read blog posts after February 17, 2009. However, if you have an analog browser, you will need a digital-to-analog converter box to continue to receive blog posts. This converter box will also enable you to see any additional multicast programming that your interweb provider is offering.

The Gospel Messenger will be doing a test broadcast this afternoon between 1:00 and 1:15pm. If you can read this post at that time, this means that your browser is compatible with digital broadcasts.
