Este dispositivo contiene un sintonizador digital, es decir puede recibi\
r programas transmitidos en señal digital, con el 
uso de una antena apropiada, y después de la finalización de las t\
ransmisiones de T.V. de alta potencia análogas en los 
Estados Unidos (como es requerido por ley) al 17 de Febrero de 2009. Algunos receptores de televisión más antiguos, 
que dependen de una antena requerirán de un convertidor para recibir \
programas transmitidos en señal digital, pero ellos 
mismos pueden seguir funcionando como anteriormente para otros propós\
itos (por Ej.: para ver programas de estaciones 
de baja potencia que continuaran transmitiendo señal análoga, ver \
películas pre-grabadas, ó conectados a video juegos). 
Cuando un convertidor es usado con una televisión más antigua, pod\
ría ser necesario el uso de un distribuidor de señal 
para continuar  la recepción de señales de baja potencia análog\
as vía antena. Para mayor información, por favor accesar 
a www.DTV.gov. Para información sobre el programa de convertidores de T.V. y el programa de cupones del gobierno que 
pueden ser usados para la compra de uno, ver www.dtv2009.gov, ó llamar al teléfono NTIA 1-888-DTV-2009.
Por favor verificar con su proveedor de servicio de cable ó satéli\
te si tiene alguna pregunta sobre su caja de cable ó 
satélite.
