The Federal Government has run out of money to help people purchase digital converter boxes for their televisions.
Starting February 17th, TV stations will switch to a digital signal, so anyone using rabbit ears will have to get a converter for their television.
The Federal Government had been mailing out 40 dollar vouchers to help people purchase the boxes, which run between 40 and 80 dollars.
However, because so many people have requested the coupons, the government has run out of money to cover the vouchers.
Anyone who applied after January 4th will be put on a waiting list until morefunds become available.
