From Analog to Digital

MAY

2008

Welcome to the digital age using an analog TV. Several months ago I went on line to (http://www.ntia.doc.gov/dtvcoupon) and processed my two coupon cards for Digital-to-Analog Converter Boxes. Not being fond of the cable company either, I was eager to try 'em out. I had THE MOST BASIC cable package...

Critical Review

Good design. Poor reliability. Poor Warranty.

I purchased the Zenith DTT-900 DTV Converter Box from Radio Shack in May 2008. It performed well until March 2009 when it began turning itself off after a few minutes of operation. After resetting it, confirming the auto-off function wasn't the problem I determined the problem was heat related. ...

A well made converter box that is built to last.

Willing to pay for quality

The Zenith DT900 Digital-to-Analog Converter Box it is one of the best purchases I have ever made. I have used this converter box for more than a year and I have not experienced any problems with it. The picture quality is very good, the image looks clean and sharp.

This converter box was built to last. The case is metal and is well vented. The power cord plugs directly into a wall outlet because it has it's own built-in power supply. Many other converter boxes use a cheap wall transformer for power.

What really makes this converter box stand out above the rest is it's high quality tuner....

The Zenith digital converter box is absolutely the best box you can get with the government's $40 coupon cards they gave out. Compared to the Magnavox, the Zenith has a lot more options and best of all, a better GUI - user interface.

Some key points that the Zenith has and the Magnavox does not:
- you can turn off your tv with the remote as well as the converter box.
- mute button and volume control on remote
- recall/return to channel button actually works
- digital guide button to see what's on each channel, without turning the channel (its just like you bought cable!)
- less digitized and old school... review »

The Zenith DTT900 Digital to Analog Converter Box has really been a great investement. It is normally priced at $70, with the free card provided by the government, the price was only $30. The pictures are clear, the setup is easy, and navigation is dummy-proof.

The only downfall in my opinion, is that you still need a regular antenna. We had to purchase a new antenna that had great signal ranges. Because we live under a hole bunch of trees, reception is not great and we don't receive a lot of the channels we could if we didn't have trees. I wish there was a way that it didn't need an antenna

I have the magnavox converter and it doesn't have an internal antenna. I hooked it to an antenna and it still won't get signal. In the fine print it says digital signal must be within 20 miles to receive channels. My advice, check out the model you're thinking of buying online and call the company if they don't say about the 20 mile thing since I wasted $20 (I used the government $40 discount card).
