If you are an over-the-air viewer who watches a low power television station on an analog set, you will want to take note of the following when selecting a digital converter box.

Low power stations are NOT required to transition to digital broadcasting like full power stations. This will not affect your analog set if you choose not to obtain a digital converter. However, if you do purchase a converter you might want to consider what type you select.

If you want to watch digital stations and continue to view the low power analog stations you will need a converter with "analog pass-through" capability. This feature will allow your analog set's tuner to receive over-the-air low power TV signals. Check here https://www.ntiadtv.gov/cecb_list.cfm for a listing of models with the pass-through feature. They are marked with an asterisk.

There aren't many low power stations in Western New York and you may not need the feature at all, but you should be aware of your options.
