_Will I Need A Digital Converter Box?



Picture
I'm sure with many of you out there your main TV for you and your families entertainment has a digital tuner. Meaning it has the capability to except a digital signal via a TV antenna. But keep this in mind. Did you know you can run multiple TV's off your ONE (1) rooftop antenna! Knowing this though, just make sure that your other TV's throughout your house are digital also... they're not???! Not a problem. Simply get yourself a digital converter box (you will have to have one for each TV). This device will convert the digital signal your antenna receives to an analog one so your older type TV can display it.

How do I know if my TV is analog or digital?

From DTV.gov http://www.dtv.gov/needtoknow.html

The Commission's digital tuner rule specifies that as of March 1, 2007, all new TV sets must include digital tuners.


The Converter Box We Recommend

We really like the Zinwell ZAT-970A Digital Converter Box below. Has a built in VCR timer with 8 slots to work with your VCR for recording programs. How awesome is that! Probably like most of us we still have that VCR stuffed somewhere in a bedroom or in the basement along with your TV. This makes it even less bothersome to make the switch.
