We got the converter boxes but they don't work how do you hook them up/or is there possibly another problem. We hooked them up thinking we did the right way but still don't get the main chanels from our antena? Any people know what might be wrong?

You make sure your TV is on the proper channel, normally channel 3 or 4. You hook antenna up to box, and box to the TV.

You need have to find the channels, ( they will be new channel numbers)

I have found on several that the range is not as good as it was.

DTV suffers from the cliff effect. All or nothing.

You will have to scan for the channels.

After Feb 17th, if not delayed, you will have to scan again. Locations, channels and transmit power will change.
