People maybe not be realizing it but it is quickly getting closer to analog digital transition. Currenlty we are only about 5 months away and we must do something in order to keep our TV working. If you use a older type antenna, rooftop antenna, or rabbit ears then your television will stop working after the digital transition unless you get a digital to analog TV converter box.

If you are in this situation and are looking to get a converter box then I suggest that you consider the RCA DTA800B1 converter box. The RCA DTV Converter Box costs about $60 and is a great buy for a person wanting an analog digital converter. It comes with a lot of great features and is eligible for the governmetn coupon.

The sound quality for the RCA DTA800B1 converter is very excellent. The sound comes in very clear and crisp. When watching TV with this converter box you get sound that is way better than what you are use to with analog TV.

The overal picture quality and clearness for the RCA DTA800B1 digital analog converter is excellent. It actually rates just below DVD quality and way above analog TV quality. If you get this converter box you will get a very clear picture. In fact, the converter box is rated as one of the best when it comes to picture quality.

This digital TV converter box come with an electronic program guide that gives information for all upcoming and current shows. The RCA DTA800B1 also provides consumers with a universal remote control, adjustable closed captioning, and the analog pass-through function. This converter box is loaded with a lot of excellent features and should be considered by everybody.

Overall the RCA DTA800B1 is a great converter box and isn't rivaled by much. If you were looking for a similar converter box but want one with S-Video output then you should check out the Channel Master CM-7000.

wow I've been searching for RCA DTA800B1 converter box answers for a glitch we have with ours that drives us mad. We've owned it for over a year. We have a 4 yr old Sony TV. Recently we get a black 3/4 screen pop up with a series of white x's or other nonsensical writing at the top of the black box on the screen. Happens randomly but more at night and more during commercials. The only way to get rid of it is to constantly turn off the system. I have restored to factory default...no help. It looks like something to do with the CC, which we don't use. But why would CC cover most of the screen? All in all I have been sorely disappointed in digital TV and the new equipment that goes with it. Anyhoo.....got any clues or is this converter box just a piece of sh--?
