FCC Chairman is in Cincinnati on Jan. 7th 06

Do you have questions about the transition to digital TV on Feb. 17, or the coupons for digital TV converter boxes? You can get answers at 9:30 a.m. Tuesday straight from the source:
Kevin J. Martin, chairman of the Federal Communications Commission. Martin will conduct a one-hour public information meeting at the Cincinnati-Hamilton County Community Action Agency, 1740 Langdon Farm Road, in Jordan’s Crossing Shopping Center, Bond Hill.

Martin will conduct similar meetings this afternoon in Dayton and Columbus. The FCC has targeted the three cities because of their high percentages of homes not prepared to receive digital TV signals.

A December Nielsen report said Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky was No. 25 among all TV markets, with 6.6 percent homes not ready for digital TV. Dayton was No. 20 (7.4 percent), and Columbus was No. 39 (5.2 percent).
