The House passed a bill today that gives broadcasters until Dec. 31, 2008, to stop using analog spectrum. The bill also authorizes $990 million for a digital-to-analog converter box program to help people get digital TV. The switchover program would be funded from an auction of the vacated wireless spectrum, which will be allocated for use by emergency first-responders and wireless broadband providers.
