Top Digital TV Antenna Retailers
If you have chosen the type of antenna you need and also decided on a certain brand then the next step is to choose which retailer you want to make your purchase from. The easiest and most hassle free way would be to purchase direct from the manufacturer but not all manufacturers sell directly and if they do their prices are usually around 15 higher than most retailers.

Study on digital-to-analog converter boxes
Dallas – A recently released tracking study on digital-to-analog converter boxes from Digital Tech Consulting (DTC) found that nearly 7 million units shipped during the second quarter of 2009.
The market research firm said the results were actually “healthier than expected.”
An update to the study shows that nearly 45 million D/A converter boxes have shipped into retail outlets from the beginning of the coupon program through the second quarter of 2009.
“Given the high number of coupon applications received in June and the first part of July, it is likely that several million more will ship through year end,” stated Myra Moore, DTC principal.
With the largest portion of the transition now complete in the largest market in world, DTC said that more activity waits D/A converter box makers. With the exception of Germany, The Netherlands and a handful of smaller Western European countries, the rest of the world has yet to pull the analog TV plug, DTC observes.
Some 79 percent of the countries in the world have yet to start commercial digital terrestrial TV (DTT) transmissions, although 42 percent have pledged to do so in the near future.
Still, no one market offers the same potential that U.S. transition did and not all countries have made a digital TV system conversion a priority at this time.
However, DTC pointed out, companies selling DTT receivers “don’t have to worry about the well going dry just yet. From 2010 to 2013, some populous and/or prosperous countries are scheduled to shut off their analog systems — among them Canada, the U.K., France, Ireland, Italy, Spain and South Korea.”
A significant number of countries are now testing, building, or planning a system, DTC said.
“Equipment suppliers will just have to work a little harder to tailor solutions to individual countries that will likely make their jobs harder by building systems that will vary slightly from country to country,” Moore observed. “Plus, the transition has already been completed for the U.S., which has 100 million TV households. Not many of those kinds of TV household penetrations left in the world — oh, except for China.”

Get your digital TV converter box coupons
July 31 is the deadline to apply for the $40 discount on converter boxes for analog television sets, the Commerce Department says.
Been staring at a blank TV picture since June 12, when broadcasters switched to all-digital?
That’s a likely sign the television is of the old analog type and can’t process digital signals without a converter box. The federal government has been issuing $40 coupons that nearly offset the price of the boxes, which are available online and in many consumer electronics stores.
But next week could be your last chance to get in on the discount program. The Commerce Department says it will accept applications for coupons only through Friday. Applications are taken online at www.dtv2009.gov, and each household can receive a maximum of two coupons.
If you use a cable or satellite service for television and plan to stay with it, you don’t have to worry. Those services are already providing the conversion.
If you have a fairly new TV set, it’s probably digital already; if so, no box is needed.
The folks in need of converter boxes are those with older, analog sets who get their TV via over-the-air broadcasts. Source: latimes.com
