  • Thisis the truth. In central Maine we've been forced {by Oct. 19th, 2011} to switch to digital tv via this little digital converter we all got in the mail. My tv is a 20 yr old Sony. {I was about to buy a new one.} You wouldn't believe my reception now. My reception is unbelievable. Every station is perfect. Clear as a bell. Every station is like I'm watching a DVD......With the old analog signal I was getting it wasn't nearly as good. No comparison. This is all I can tell you. Night and day.

  • nice vd.. thx

  • Complete garbage. I have all the best equipment and am less than 20 miles from the tower. Almost no signal most of the time. Before, I could get every channel that came out of Houston and even in distant cities as well as a few other states. This technology should have never replaced analog. From the smallest to the largest most amplified antenna it's still trash. I bet they made a lot of $ getting the gov to run that voucher program. We the people took a bad hit on this one.

  • lol im watching youtube... its digital dumbass

  • This is suppose to be test here

    in the Philippines back in 1997.

    But they never plan it until they

    discover in 1999

  • Digital TV lies. Unless you live within 10 to 15 miles from the tower you will not get a signal at all! Even with installing a 100 mile outdoor ant. I usted to get 30 plus channels with indoor rabit ears and now after installing a big outdoor ant. I get one spanish DTV station. DTV sucks!!!

  • the problem with digital and hd tv is that they still use the infirior mpeg compression method to save bandwitch.

    so the quality could be averagely even more worse than annalogue tv.

    you could with annalogue preserve maximum quality ,by sending all signals one by one to save bandwitch and to prevent distorbtion.

    to get maximum quality with digital tv they need a losseless compression method!!!!!!!!

  • Lossless? Are you stupid? That would take up at least 2 channels worth of bandwidth to transmit. MPEG is also perfectly fine for transmitting most signals.
