RE: Converter Box question...

Posted by Jim Doyle on May 4, 2008 at 20:18:02:
I looked at Circuit City, Best Buy and Radio Shack. I bought the
DigitalStream from Radio Shack because I'd read a review that mentioned
several faetures that really give this box a big advantage: Control
over 4/3, 14/9, 16/9 resolution to the display! Also, it has buttons
to show you antenna signal strength, captions and program guide.

I'm using the Dig Stream with a simple $4.19 UHF Bowtie Antenna. I get
over 20 stations in the Boston area with signal strength all > 75% (!!!)

I recommend using the composite video connection too!
