The list of people waiting for DTV converter box coupons has continued to grow and it seems unlikely that those waiting for vouchers will get them unless the government intervenes, Broadcasting & Cable reports. The National Telecommunications & Information Administration estimates that some 1.35 million requests for DTV converter boxes are on the waiting list, while hundreds of thousands of requests continue to arrive every day, the trade says. That waiting list began Sunday, when requests reached the $1.34 billion cap on the program, B&C says.
