Digital Transition Still On

By Catherine M. Welch

Wilmington, NC – The Federal Communications Commission says so far Wilmington's still on track to make the scheduled switch from analog to digital Monday.

The FCC and Wilmington television stations have been working since May to make Wilmington the first television market in the nation to switch off analog signals and broadcast only in digital.

After the switch, viewers without cable or satellite will need a converter box to get a picture. The rest of the country will go digital in February.
