Is this tv able to use the convertor box to get digital signals?

Any antenna that can receive digital signals.

Hi. Convertor boxes have a preset channel output. This is either in the VHF region (channel 4) or somewhere in the UHF region (like most video's on channel 36 or 38). Switch on the convertor, and try a scan on your TV. You must be able to locate the output channel from the convertor. At least if this one is ok, or receiving.

You need a digital convertor box for older TV.

are you in a state that has changed from analog to digital? if so, you need a digital convertor box. but you should be able to get Canada channels. Also, change your Atenna type from Cable to Air. This would also solve your problem.

one is to go to menu and auto search the channels. but if your state is now digital programming then you need a convertor box to get local stations.

buy a convertor from walmart to goto rca to vhf

You need a digital to analog convertor box to recieve the digital signal.

All UHF+VHF signals will be digital starting in June.

Thanks for using FixYa - a FixYa rating is appreciated.

I'm sorry, but the DWT1304 is no digital. If you use an antenna for your signals, you will need a converter box.

> jfthr - Tv convertor boxes transfer digital signals into ANALOG. So when it goes to the dvd recorder it IS ANALOG. I have my antenna hooked to my convertor box, the converter hooked up to the ILO (A/V connections) then, the output on the ILO to the input of my analog tv. (Video selection on my tv). It works great to watch tv and/or record. I switch to the "DVD SOURCE" to watch dvds. Maybe you have the conv box hooked to the tv then the outs on the tv to the dvd. That would explain why you can get a picture but not watch dvd? The ILO has to go between the box and the tv in order to watch dvd.

Pretty much a hoax on those diverter boxes. People ran out and bought them thinking that won't have reception. I have many years in maintenance and several years in nursing homes with different tv's in every room. Not once have I needed a box to pick up channels with or without cable. I myself get 16 channels with rabbit ears and thats enough for me. And I do own a combo as well and it has simple antenna and does me just fine. Depending on your location, the old tv antennas we use to put on our houses...they work amazing! Might be able to snag one on a freecycle or craigslist site. Good luck! :)
