Hello to all...this is my first post, however, given my (personal) AV equipment and my lack of understanding much of how it works, it's probably not my last!
My ladyfriend has two analog TVs for which we purchased a pair of Zenith convert boxes. She live in a high-rise condominium which has a hugh antenna serving the entire building. I hooked one of the boxes up, which went quite easily, however, of the channels she WAS receiving (8), four of them are now absent. I expected this after reading this and other forums about the issue...during which I also decided to purchase the Zenith (Insignia clone) with the LG chip...since many folks had noted loss of weaker stations.
BUT...one of the now-absent stations was one of, if not THE, strongest stations she'd been receiving. With the converter tied-in, it shows "No Signal". Initially I thought that particular unit was bad, so I pulled it off and put the other box on...same deal..."No Signal".
I don't get this one folks. We're in the Washington, D.C. area and I'm referring to Channel 4...one of the monster local channels...NBC!
Any ideas? Thanks in advance if you can 'splane this to me.....
