I hate to think how many tax dollars we're sending to freaking china for these bloody "conveter boxes" Which will fill our landfills within 2 years. People will A: get the dam things and have no use for them cause it's free from the gov't and must be gotten, B: get the dam things without knowing wheather they need them or not, C: get the dam things then get tired of f-ing around with 2 remotes just to watch tv, and finally just buy a new tv, filling the landfill with that too.
The parents got theirs and they seem to work better than expected, I'm gonna try to coax them into a sage tv- extender setup.

not much gets me wound up anymore but this does.
