Judging by the number of comments we keep receiving about DTV converter boxes on Consumer Reports' Electronics Blog, it seems many consumers are still confused about DTV set-top boxes—and the transition to digital TV, in general.
We produced a new online video guide to DTV converter boxes that should help those who are using their $40 government-issued coupons to shop for DTV boxes. You can watch the 5-minute-long video by clicking on the embedded player at right.
We also have more, free information about the DTV transition—including our latest Ratings of DTV converter boxes—at ConsumerReports.org. You can find further help in the digital TV transition section of Consumer Reports discussion forums on Electronics and Computers.
Have a question about DTV converter boxes or the digital TV transition you'd like to see answered? Leave a comment here on our Electronics Blog.
