<p>[QUOTE="gkcoco, post: 1054, member: 248"]I have a rather expensive rotor antenna that was installed 11 years ago but a year later I hooked up to satellite TV. The antenna and rotor still work fine and hook up to the box, TV, or whatever with coaxial cable.</p><p>So.... If I give this antenna and rotor along with a two year old digital TV with coaxial hook-up to a (very) poor neighbor can she receive the new digital signal from local stations through the air and directly into a digital TV without the need for a converter box? It's my understanding the the box converts digital to analog so in this case it seems like the "box" could be avoided. </p><p>Any thoughts on this? Thanks to all that help.[/QUOTE]</p><p></p>
