You ask where has your cousin been since Sunday? I've been watching TV. And no I don't have the cable back on even though Charter is paid in full and stalking me to reconnect....My mom has been driving me crazy to get a digital converter box for my TV before 2009 so at least I can watch the basic channels and the news. So, Saturday she comes over and brings a one of those boxes that they have been talking a hole in everyone head about on TV. We hooked it up to antenna, programmed it and now I got about 15 digital channels to watch, with CLEAR picture and sound. The box is like a digital cable box with the guide and everything. It's like having free digital TV with no Cable channels!! lol!
The only downside is that you basically are stuck with CBS,NBC,UPN,ABC,MY Network,and about 5 PBS'.Depending on where you live....And when the screen "tiles" you can't call Charter or Time Warner and cuss them out about it.
AND...if you are a HGTV,DIY, FOOD network junkie. THIS IS NOT FOR YOU. YOU CANT GET THOSE CHANNELS!
This is a awesome way to cut out a cable or satellite bill and just watch regular ole' TV like we use to back in 1982.:)
Check the this site out and apply for the coupon to get your box. You going to need that coupon because they run like 60.00 and up. My Mom got mine from HHGregg for $2.00 after the coupon.
