Regarding what you say about the bad communication surrounding being DTV ready: my father kept the old, heavy AF CRT that used to serve as the the main TV, so that I could take it when I moved out. The digital TV he had instead, I remember watching digital TV on it, and it had channels on the digital signal that didn't exist on analog, but it was a bit sad that I had to move out before all of the TV channels in his (regional) area went fully digital. He gave me the old TV and an old indoor antenna (with a wood trim and a knob on - and I'll admit I have no proper idea what that knob served for, but I took it and used it), and I bought a set-top-box from my local supermarket. When I got to where I was living at the time, it was unbelievable what I was watching. There were channels I'd heard of but never been able to properly watch until then. I was beyond ecstatic. I was so happy. And then my dad decided to buy me a new TV, which I'll have had for ten years this December. And we got rid of the old TV ("fortunately" or "unfortunately", take your pick). And I watch KZbin through the Chromecast on it, and it's a fantastic way to be entertained, bar none. Now I don't care about the terrestrial channels (even though the antenna is plugged into the TV, a lot of what's on free-to-air TV is crap, but that's not a matter of analog or digital TV, rather everything to do with the content they commission for broadcast). But watching this video is bringing back memories of how I used to watch TV (only) ten years ago. It's beautiful in its own way.

I have one of these boxes, the (now closed) Radio Shack sold them in my town for 20 bucks with the discount card. And I remember reading online then that this model was one of the better DTV boxes for getting out of town signals. I have cable and I bought a couple DTV boxes for emergencies for when the cable was off. But reception in East Texas with rabbit ears is poor except for the stations out of Longview TX. Channel 7 in Tyler TX (ABC) had one of the best analog signals in the area, but after they went digital you couldn't pick them up anymore.

Reminds me a bit of how I came across a VCR which had the programming of a Jacksonville, FL cable system (here in Albany, NY, over 1000 miles away) o_O

What do the signal strength numbers represent? For example what number does one have to get in order for it to lock in and if one gets a 4 with a no gain dipole would a good antenna raise it enough to lock?

Got a few DTV boxes and found this model to have the best picture quality via the RF Out.

Does anyone happen to know how to connect the remote to the TV? Those 4 buttons on the top of the remote horizontally is what I'm talking about.

I really love old technologies that is really good quality that we used to have one back in the day, for me I don't like get rid of old electronics because, they're cool and it's much better than today's technology because, the new technology were design to fail and let you buy another one and so forth. Old electronics do last long like GE, RCA, RCA Victor, Zenith, Motorola, and Admiral TV's that are design to be serviced compare to today's electronics, they're not design to be fixed, they're design to throw away, recycle them, or replace the whole device. Especially for me I do recycle electronics for good like GPX DVD Player because, I found out the design I looked they're defective. Both Chinese made electronics and Indonesia made electronics, they're aren't design to fix like Panasonic VCR's, they're design to be throw away because, it's never design to re-timed the gear properly which was Washer with Teeth they're never meant to be come off otherwise, if you remove the Washer with Teeth that's locate with plasticshaft, you could break them off and the whole VCR could no longer accurate.
