HI,

I am sorry I am not in tuned about electronics,but the answer to your questions is no I do
Not get basic channels. I do still have the satellite box on both tvs. The channels that are for veiwing are shopping, dishnetwork preview channels,serveral ppv sports channels,
Nature&science channels. These hannels come in clear. When I say basic I mean channels in TX like CBS,NBC,ABC,Fox,UPN,andCW. Thanks for your answer to my questions.

Hi,
Thanks for the response to the first question. But Is there a way I can us my vcrs to
Watch and record shows without the converter box or satellitebox?


Thanks,

I have some questions. You say that dishnetwork has been disabled from all basic channels? Does that mean you still get basic channels? Do you still have the satellite box? If you don't have a sat box, or you do but you don't have any channels (basic or otherwise), your options depending on your area are limited to regular old rabbit ears (farmer vision where I come from) or watching VHS tapes from your VCR. But... I'm not sure if I understand your question first off.

The basic channels of what?

The TV and VCR can have all sorts of tuners in them: NTSC, ATSC, QAM HDTV cable tuner or NTSC cable tuner. Your VCR probably only has Cable and NTSC.
