The HD ones can also be used in SD mode, and the RCA DTC-100 will be a good match with a CT-100 (their first color set and first HD tuner) or an 8TS30 or 630TS (since the tuner looks like those).

Enlighten me!
Which ones do you consider HD vs SD. I have several different makes.
On My daily watchers, I use the video outs, instead of the RF outs.
Also, I find that the Magnavox boxes don't work well with certain sets. Audio is extremely weak.
P.S. What convertors does every forum member prefer.

Indeed and watching it IN ANALOGUE is even better (The only analogue station left in my area AND IT IS ONE FINE NETWORK TO HAVE IN ANALOGUE!!)

The sound is superb!!! -- BETTER THAN WHAT IM USED TO HEARING ON DIRECTV OR OTHER DIGITAL!! (Sounds as good as when we only had analogue)

Most all stations in the states have gone to digital crap as ya know which i dont think sounds or looks quite as good!!


All you guys should do a scan in your area and see if there are any analogues left!!!! -- Hook up your TV to an antenna and scan from 2 to 69 and see what (if anything) is there!
