 | Atlanta stations not waiting for June 12 for DTV only? Has anyone seen a list of the Atlanta TV stations that are dropping analog on February 17 or at least before June 12? |

 skjWelcome to the far side of realityPremium,Mod join:2002-04-04 Gone South | It is my understanding that with the new law they are not able to drop the analog signal until June 12th. |

 1 edit | No, if the stations want to they can switch over early. Here is a article about some of the stations that are switching Feb 17. Digital Switchover Still Set for Feb. 17 for Many Stations But it does not talk about any Atlanta stations.
The major networks (ABC, CBS, NBC & FOX) have said that all of their company owned stations will delay their switchover but their affiliates can decide on their own. I don't know if the Atlanta ones are company owned or affiliate stations. |

 | reply to Automate According to this »hraunfoss.fcc.gov/edocs_public/a···21A5.pdf it looks like only WATC in Atlanta and WGTV in Athens are shutting off analog on Feb 17. |
