Smile Using the $40 coupon Digital to analog converter with cable service?

Hi,

I have 2 TV's. One is new with a digital tuner. The other is an older analog TV. They are both hooked directly to the cable service with no converter boxes at all, or antenna. The new TV gets many digital and digital sub-channels that the analog one doesn’t.

My question is, If I run my cable service through one of the $40 coupon digital to analog converters to my analog TV, does it turn my analog TV into a digital TV? Or, will I be able to get all the channels on the older TV that I am getting on my new TV that came with a built in digital tuner?

Everything I’ve read so far says I wont need a digital to analog converter if I have cable service, but why am I getting many more channels on my digital TV versus my analog TV if that is the case?

Thanks for any help you can offer.

Julie
