Ditigal Television Transition - February 17, 2009.

Ditigal Television Transition - February 17, 2009.

Do you have a coupon for a converter box?

I thought this was a great website to explain what is happening with the Ditigal Television Transition on February 17, 2009.

Reference the following website https://www.dtv2009.gov/AboutProgram.aspx. This first paragraph is from that website explaining the transition.

What is the digital television transition? At midnight on February 17, 2009, all full-power television stations in the United States will stop broadcasting in analog and switch to 100% digital broadcasting. Digital broadcasting promises to provide a clearer picture and more programming options and will free up airwaves for use by emergency responders. What is the TV Converter Box Coupon Program? Congress created the TV Converter Box Coupon Program for households wishing to keep using their analog TV sets after February 17, 2009. The Program allows U.S. households to obtain up to two coupons, each worth $40, that can be applied toward the cost of eligible converter boxes.

To get your coupon goto https://www.dtv2009.gov/ and apply today.
Hope you found this useful.

Purdue Scholarships for Spencer County Residents



Purdue Scholarships for Spencer County Residents


As a Purdue Alumni and use of this scholarship, I thought I would blog this important fact to potential home owners looking at moving into Spencer County.


All residents of Spencer County students are given a scholarship call the Berkshire Scholarship if they attend Purdue University and are from our county. The amounts vary depending on how many students goto Purdue from the county a year. In addition, you are given scholarship funds every year that you attend Purdue upto four years. A mininium GPA is all that is required to keep the scholarship every year. If you do not keep the min. GPA you can loose it and not qualify for it as you continue your education at Purdue.


Thanks to a Spencer County Alumni that set this fund up. I was very thankful for its use and thousands it saved me over the years at Purdue. I thought I would get the message out because it can make a difference in home selection if you have students getting ready to attend college and you are debating if you want to live in Spencer, Dubois, or Perry County.
Call for more details.


Hail, Hail, to Old Purdue.....
