Yes it is, but you will need a digital ready TV or a converter box. You will also need the standard bat wing type antenna for best reception.

I was told by a tv store not to waste my money as all tv stations were no longer going to put out airwaves TV either right now or in the near future.

So I was not going to buy a digital converter box.

So is shop not right and TV will still put out airwave TV. now and in the future???

Local stations provide broadcast TV for their areas. The local TV stations provide FREE tv programming vs pay per view as in cable or satellite. There is no indications that broadcast TV was going away. If there were there would have been absolutely no reason to make the change to digital broadcast as that was solely for broadcast through the air, not cable.
