  • Digital TV Guide: Understanding Digital TV and Conversion Options
    The vast majority of homes in the United States are now equipped for digital TV. If you have a TV that was purchased in the last 10 years or so, it almost certainly has a built-in digital tuner. If you're not sure if your TV is digital, you can check the back of the TV for an input that says "HDMI" or "DVI". If you see one of these inputs, your TV is digital.

    If you don't have a digital TV, you can still get digital TV by using a converter box. A converter box is a device that connects to your TV and converts digital TV signals into analog signals that your TV can understand. Converter boxes are available at most electronics stores.

    To use a converter box, you'll need to connect it to your TV and your antenna. Once you've connected the converter box, you'll need to tune your TV to the channel that the converter box is broadcasting on. The channel number will be displayed on the converter box.

    Once you've tuned your TV to the correct channel, you'll be able to watch digital TV. You may need to adjust the settings on your TV to get the best picture and sound quality.
