FCC confident about digital-TV preparedness | Digital Media - CNET News

FCC confident about digital-TV preparedness | Digital Media - CNET News: "While Copps said he believes that Americans are better prepared now for the transition to digital television than they were prior to the February 17 deadline, he said that there will still be some people who will see blank TV screens on June 12, when all TV stations will be broadcasting in digital.
'Even though we are better prepared this time,' he said. 'There will still be disruptions for some consumers. And candor compels us to inform viewers of these issues.'
To deal with the many people who might lose TV signals in June, the FCC has set up 4,000 call centers and is beefing up staffing to answer consumer phone calls."
