In Reply to: Some Qs on the upcoming digital-conversion settop boxes. posted by clarkjohnsen on April 15, 2008 at 10:29:50:
>>>Will the new channels retain the same (low) numbers?<<<
That will depend on your area and its channels. In DC., the 3 networks are on 4, 7, and 9. They will then(and already are) on 4.1, 7.1, and 9.1. They will also have other sub channels like a weather channel on 7.2 and 9.2.
>>>Will a separate box be required for every DVD recorder and VCR?<<<
Possibly, but you may be able to split the signal, if its strong enough.
>>>Even more to the point, will the channel selector in each of those still work?<<<
Not unless they have a digital tuner, or allow for decimal points in tuning.
>>>Will rabbit ears still work? (Prolly not...) So what will?<<<
If they work well for you now, then they will work after the switch.
Digital signal is more of an all or nothing situation. If its too weak, you'll get nothing, if its right on the edge, you'll get break-up, but mostly nothing. Other than that, it will come in.
