2004, 38 ft, tv converter box set up ????

[Cedar41]

Our rig has a Panasonic TV with the signal coming thru a Toshiba vcr. The TV is digital ready. Does that mean we will have to buy a vcr with a digital signal for the TV to work? I don't even know how we will get them all out. Or will we have to add the converter to the antena some how. They are all stacked in there so tight. Anyone with this set up have a clue. We only use antena if the camp does not have cable.

when you stop and go to menu to do a new channel search does it find digital AND analog channels????? if no digital come feb 09 you will not get locals off the batwing.....it you have satellite those channels will work with no changes.............Jim k

If you dont use the tuner on the vcr to changes what you watch on tv your fine ....if you use the vcr to play tapes your fine.....if youleave the tv on channel 3 and change channels on the vcr the vcr will have to be digital or go buy one of those convertor boxes that have a government rebate ...nets out about $20 hope this answers everthing jim k

We don't have satellite and yes we do use the VCR to change chanels. I have the rebates, not sure where and how to hook up the convertor we will have to have.

It can be connected between the VCR and the lead coming from the Winegard amplifier box - which is now connected to the VCR input unless it goes to a switch box first.

Some switch boxes, VCRs, etc. were designed for analog signals only and will not pass a digital signal through to the tv. That can apply even if the VCR is in pass through mode, simply re-routing the incoming signal back out to the tv. If you aren't getting digital channels now on your digital (ATSC tuner) tv, try bypassing any intervening video switches, splitters, VCR/DVD device and go direct from the antenna amplifier to the tv input and see what you get.
