A feature-packed digital TV converter box

Tag : Satellite Box
If you're in the market for a digital TV converter box, here's onethat really delivers: DTVPal from Dish Network.
Yes, the same folks who offer satellite TV service are now sellinga box that's strictly for off-air viewing.
It's super-simple to get going once you plug in the power and theantenna cables. A step-by-step on-screen menu guides you to firstalign your antenna; then scan for available channels. I found atotal of 30 from my home in Denton County using an antenna in theattic.
Then you punch in your time zone and zip code. That informationhelps provide one of the best DTVPal features: a real on-screenprogram guide, very similar to what you'd find when using a cableor a satellite service.
But these 30 channels — all in digital quality — are all free;there's no monthly subscription.
You can even set DTVPal to automatically tune in a channel at apredetermined tmie so you can record shows using an analog VCR or aDVD recorder.
One other thing I really like about the DTVPal is the remotecontrol. It has a dedicated button that lets you easily change the"aspect ratio" of the screen. That means you can see thefull width of a widescreen broadcast or you can zoom in toeliminate unused screen space.
