New DTV Signal Information

With the television signal replacement comes alot of questions. We hope to clear some up for you here with accurate information.
The stats state that 19 million homes in America do not subscribe to cable or satellite service. These houses will have to modify their television reception techniques. There are several options available that do not require replacing every television in the house. Converter boxes (terrestrial recievers) are available that will recieve the free-air HDTV signal and display it on analog televisions. The picture should improve as the signal is digital. The most notable improvement when using an analog set with a converter box will be the cd quality sound. Most converter boxes allow for an easy interface with home theatre for further enhancement of the sound experience. You may want to check the in-out connectors to be sure the new unit fits comfortably into your system before purchasing the new equipment.
HDTV antennas that allow free-air reception come in many varieties and styles from hidden units concealed in picture frames that sit on the set to outside mast mounted units.
Also, some new cd player-recorders have a built-in DTV tuner that will serve the same purpose as a converter box.
