The
Transition to Digital TV, If you have a TV on board
(Like I do) and it's not a digital TV (most likely) then after Feb
2009 you won't be able to receive the digital stations (all
stations). You can obtain a free $40 coupon from the
Government to help you buy a converter box. I bought mine at
Wal-Mart for $50 so the real
cost was $10. I was receiving 4 channels with my analog
antenna input but when I connected up the digital box I now have
over 14 channels to watch. Look into it if you have a TV on
your boat. The box is on top of my TV that I bought at a
garage sale for $15. Comes with a remote.
