Analog-to-digital conversion

KRMT shut down its analog signal, over UHF channel 41, on June 12, 2009, the official date on which full-power television stations in the United States transitioned from analog to digital broadcasts under federal mandate. The station's digital signal remained on its pre-transition UHF channel 40.[3] Through the use of PSIP, digital television receivers display the station's virtual channel as its former UHF analog channel 41.
