Complaints have started to come in about the government coupon program designed to help people get ready for the switch to digital television. Where they live can make it harder for some people to get the discount on the digital converter they need.
When the rules were first written, they were very specific. Coupons could only be delievered to a residential household with it's own address.
This causes problems with people who live in nursing homes, RV parks and mobile home parks where everyone's mail is delivered at a single address.
Though the rules will be changed this fall, it's causing some folks to come up empty when they apply for their two, $40 converter coupons.
