Your cable company is in as big a hurry to turn off analog as the
networks.

But way would they HAVE to make the change at the at the time
specified by that broadcast law?

BTW, the cable company here shows no sign of discontinuing analog
service. I know several people who have it.

Certainly they will be happy to rent you a box to output
NTSC but your "cable ready" stuff won't be "ready".
I understand Comcast has already done this in some places.
