I bought the Winegard converter to use in my motorhome. I thouht it would be better to use a Windgard product since my RV antenna is a Winegard. I am glad that I did. It works beautifully and I am amazed at the quality of pictures that I am getting on the road. I am getting more and better chanels than I did with analog TV.
My son has a high definition LCD tv using satellite TV in Houston and even he was impressed by the pictures on my 15 Inch LCD TV in my RV.
The converter is well designed and has many options for the picture. I am using the RCA plugs into a set of Ampex computer speakers and the sound is very good.
It has the best menu that I have ever seen for editing channels--very easy to use.
The only thing that I would suggest to Winegard is to leave the mute on while surfing channels. I am not sure if there is any way to do this, but as set up it restores the sound as soon as you switch to a new channel.
I highly recommend this converter after ... Read More

Firstly, you can take advantage immediately of the new digital transition. Extra channels are already up and running. The FCC allowed each station to broadcast up to four stations at a time. Here in So Cal PBS now has an all Spanish broadcast, NBC weather & sports rebroadcasts. So there will be programs/stations that your cable subscription just won't cover.
Here are a couple of links to get you on your way to making a decision:

click on the first PDF and you might figure out how to get the Consumer Reports ratings for the convereter boxes. Apparently what's availible now on Amazon are one's with the best picture. But digital pictures are ghost-free so the pictures will look better regardless.

This should help a little to alot as well.
As for functionality/set-up of this particular unit let's just say reading the instructions was not even a consideration. ... Read More

This is a great converter box; I liked the first one I bought from Amazon so well I bought a second one just like it a month later. Winegard is a well-respected brand, known for their RV-related TV products (stowable TV antennas, digital satellite antennas, etc.). As a freelance writer, I've reviewed many of their products over the years and knew this would be a good gamble.
The box is much more attractive than comparably-priced RCA boxes available at WalMart and other retailers & the attractive grey finish is a perfect match for our Sony Trinitron TV. The box is super-easy to set up and features a highly intuitive on-screen menu that's easy to use. We love it--elegant simplicity & a great Amazon price!
