IMPORTANT NOTICE: (the digital TV transition has passed!)
If you are using an old analog TV and are receiving channels through an outdoor rooftop antenna or an
indoor "rabbit ears" antenna, you will need to purchase a digital converter box and hook it up to your
analog TV to continue receiving your local TV channels beyond June 12, 2009.  Go here for details.
However, if you subscribe to cable, satellite or other pay TV service, your analog TV will work fine
with any of these services beyond the digital TV transition date.  Be sure to re-program your HDTV,
EDTV/SDTV or your Digital Converter Box by re-scanning your digital channels [by using
either the "Auto Program" or "Auto Scan" feature] as some of those channels will move to
different RF broadcasting frequencies during the DTV transition.

Note: After purchasing a digital converter box for your analog TV, check any of these web sites for
buying the right indoor/outdoor TV antenna for your DTV converter box:
[Antennaweb.org]  [HDTVAntennalabs.com]  [SolidSignal.com]
If you already have an existing indoor or outdoor TV antenna that works well, hook it up to your
DTV converter box and try tuning in to your local channels to see if you can receive them.

Also, if you use a battery powered portable analog TV, you can purchase a battery powered
DTV converter kit from this BatterySavers.com page and connect it to your old portable TV set
to receive digital TV broadcasts.


Radio & Television Entertainment sites: Note: Radio Disney can now be heard on Sirius Satellite Radio on channel 115 and XM Satellite Radio on
          channel 115.  You can also hear Radio Disney on DirecTV channel 867.


National Television Network Sites: See your favorite shows on regular TV (not including cable TV) Note: You may need the Macromedia Flash player to properly view the above sites.  Check the above
sites for local television stations (or affiliates) in your area.  The WB & UPN television contracts have ended
and these two TV networks merged to become The CW television network.  FOX News Corp.  has
created a new TV network called "myNetwork TV" that debuted on Sept. 5, 2006 on many TV stations across
the country.  Some former UPN stations have become CW stations while other former UPN stations
have become myNetworkTV stations.  Same for the former WB stations as some of them were converted
to CW channels while other former WB stations were changed to myNetworkTV channels.  In some
cities, the ION TV channel may be available as a cable/satellite channel if it is not available as a free TV
channel.

Children's/Kids' Television Shows Web Sites:  (need Flash player to view these sites) Note: Some children's shows seen on weekend morning hours may not be broadcasted at their regular
          times due to a sporting event or special event being broadcasted in their place in the morning hours;
          this concerns the local ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC & CW TV channels in the Alaska, Hawaii, Pacific &
          Mountain time zones and may not apply to the TV stations residing in the Central & Eastern time
          zones.  Check your local TV listings at TitanTV.com, TVGuide.com or Zap2it.com to see an accurate
          list of when these children shows will be seen.
