Hi, I wanted to sustain portability so thought I would call the C Crane Company. They are working on the Government created problem and are trying to come up with a fix. If and when they do, they will make an announcement. I'm on their E Mail list and will report back to the list if I hear anything promising.

From what I have been told the V H F t v stations will no longer broadcast anything on those frequencies. Their didigtaal signal will be in the U H F band. They may continue to call themselves channel 4 or 5 or such but will actually be broadcasting on a u h f channel.. If your radio has a coax connector to a antenna now you could get one of the converter boxes and hook it up. Or itf your radio has any provisions for a external antenna some form of adapter with a converter box could work.

If this is correct as stated, is their a gadget or work-around that would continue to give me access to this TV band after the transition to the digital broadcasts? Thanks for the education, Mitch [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ No virus found in this incoming message.
