Consumer Alert! - This television receiver has only an analog broadcast tuner and will require a
converter box after February 17, 2009, to receive over-the-air broadcasts with
an antenna because of the Nation's transition to digital broadcasting.
Analog-only TVs should continue to work as before with cable and satellite TV
services, gaming consoles, VCRs, DVD players, and similar products. For more
information, call the Federal Communications Commission at 1-888-225-5322 (TTY:
