    >
    The FCC recently approved changes to the rules that require broadcasters to move from analog to digital signals early in 2009. The new rules don’t push the date for migration to digital broadcasts back. Rather, the new rules allow broadcasters to migrate to digital broadcasts before the deadline and also allow for phased transition to digital broadcasting.


    The FCC says broadcasters can migrate all or part of their broadcasts to digital before the February 17, 2009 deadline,"if doing so is necessary to achieve their transition."


    The FCC Chairman Kevin Martin issued a statement saying, “The rules we adopt in this item attempt to provide broadcasters the flexibility they need while at the same time ensuring that any disruption to over-the-air viewers is minimized to the fullest extent possible.”
