What channels will I be able to watch with the digital box converter?

Why am I still not getting as many channels as I should be with the digital converter box?

• (Sorry for it being so long) So I bought the converter box and hooked it up and it works fine. But, in one room I get like 18 or so channels and in the other I get only 5 or so. Not many of these channels are ones that we actually watch. Why is this that I get only a few channels with the box and without it I get a lot more (analog). I went to the website http://www.antennaweb.org/aw/Stations.aspx and it looks as though you either have to wait until february or get a better antennae. But, for example, 26 is already in digital but I don't get it. Is anyone else having this problem and what should I do?

• Answer:

  You don't say if these two TVs which get a dramatically different number of stations are on the same or different antenna system. This would be helpful to know. If they are different, as I imagine they should be (else if you rotate the antenna for the benefit of one TV, you may loose reception on the other). I think we could solve this situation if you could swap the two converter boxes between the two TVs and then note what happens. If the poor reception follows a particular converter box, then you know it is a converter box issue. If the poor reception does not follow the converter box, then I would imagine it is the antenna system the one TV is using.
