Will tv-band radio receivers work with digital broadcast TV?

Yes, most TV-band radio receivers can work with digital broadcast TV. Digital broadcasting standards such as ATSC (in North America), DVB (in Europe and many other parts of the world), and ISDB (in Japan and some South American countries) are designed to be backward-compatible with analog TV signals. This means that TV-band radio receivers can still pick up and decode the audio signals from digital broadcasts, even if they are not designed specifically for digital TV reception.

However, it's important to note that not all TV-band radio receivers will have the necessary features to fully take advantage of digital broadcasting. For example, some older receivers may not be able to decode the higher-quality audio formats that are available with digital TV, or may not be able to display the program information that is often transmitted along with digital broadcasts. Additionally, some TV-band radio receivers may not be able to tune in to all of the digital channels that are available in a given area.

If you want to ensure that your TV-band radio receiver can fully support digital broadcasting, you should check the specifications of the receiver to make sure that it includes features such as an ATSC, DVB, or ISDB tuner, as well as the ability to decode digital audio formats and display program information.
