Merry Xmas, the signal will go from Analog to Digital.
Quoted: "As for how to determine whether your television equipment purchased prior to May 25, 2007 is a DTV, many DTVs and digital television equipment will have labels or markings on them, or statements in the informational materials that came with them, to indicate that they contain digital tuners. These labels or markings may contain the words “Integrated Digital Tuner” or “Digital Tuner Built-In.” “Receiver” may be substituted for “Tuner,” and “DTV,” “ATSC,” or “HDTV” (high definition television) may be substituted for “Digital.” If your television equipment contains any of these labels or markings, you should be able to view digital over-the-air programming without the need for a digital-to-analog converter box. (Remember, you do not need an HDTV to view free over-the-air digital programming. As long as your television equipment contains a digital tuner, you can view over-the-air digital. An HDTV is only necessary if you want to view digital programming in “high definition.”)

the analogue to digital switch over has nothing to do with FTA receivers.
This switchover affects over the over the air tv reception, so the FTA receivers will not be in the loop.
Your local tv stations will all go digital.

If your talking about Transmitting from their Antenna Towers...then No ! They still will be Transmitting via the Towers and People that use a Rooftop or Rabbit Ear type antenna ,will be able to Receive the Signal via ATSC Digital Tuner that's built in their TV Set or by using a External Digital Tuner.

The switch over to digital will not affect your receivers, they are digtal receivers. And everything is not switching to HD, it is switching to digital. HD is one format of digital signal.
