Digital Converter Boxes

I'd like to know what idiot came up with the idea to require all television programming to go digital by Febraury 17, 2009. Has anyone tried the digital box?

It stinks! I prefer watching the antenna to using the box. The signal is always breaking up, jumping around, and repeating phrases. It's worse than watching a satellite dish during a storm or when there's sun spots. Why should the signal be worse when you have to pay extra money for a gadget? Aren't gadgets supposed to make life better?

So, here we are in the middle of nowhere, no chance of getting cable to continue getting supposedly "free" channels for free. Are we going to be forced to pay a satellite company extra for a signal that's supposed to be free? (We are allowed the option to pay $5 a month for local channels from a satellite company which seems like a total waste of money as far as I'm concerned.)

This is just the most stupid thing ever. What a waste of a perfectly good, expensive antenna that is just a couple of years old. Yet more money seemingly thrown right out the window. Will this hemmoraging of money never end?

Thank you for stopping by. Please leave me a message and a backlink. I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Cinj, Hi...very irritating. BTW...the purple does make it hard to read; over 50 eyes!

Ooops. Sorry guys. Is the new color scheme better? I want to change it to a different setup but then I have to re-add everything. What a pain.
