Analog TV ends today

My 85 year old grandmother has digital television. Anyone still using analog TV is living under a rock.

We have a TV in our kitchen that will go dead today as its not hooked up to our dish network. That's the biggest problem with dish is that you need a bax for every TV and I just don't have a good place for the box in the kitchen to hook the flat screen TV up to. I'm thinking about just hooking it up to the box in our living room but then if your in the kitchen you have to watch the same thing that's on in the living room.

You can get dual tuner boxes.

A lot of old people don't care enough to have premium television, in rural areas it's really quite a few.

This is kind of fun but sometimes I am jealous of this people. I just have so many choices that I end up watching nothing because I keep flipping the channel. I always think if I just had 4 channels I would settle on one show and enjoy it. LOL!

Yeah unless there's a game on there's a good chance that I don't watch TV. Where I'm at right now my roomie is doing FTA satellite and there's only one receiver, so now I watch even less. I've been streaming the hockey and basketball games online, which I don't mind, but it doesn't look nearly as good obviously.

No you don't. I have my TV in the upstairs living room and my big screen in the downstairs family room both hooked up to a single receiver from Dish. It's installed by the downstairs one and has a little antenna built-in on the back so the second remote works upstairs. It's a basic low-end receiver too, no DVR or anything.

Call Dish.

Thanks for the info. I don't think I'm going to worry about the TV in the kitchen as we are currently looking for a new home and also my 2 1/2 year old was getting hooked on cartoons while eating breakfast.
