Stoner,

I’m a bit confused to why you want to continue using the coax cable and have not picked up a converter box from your service provider?

They are going digital, no? When they do, you will need a converter box or all you will get out that coax is fuzz and static. If you go satellite, you will get a box too. You might as well just get the gear now and be done with it.

If it were me, I’d call my cable service provider and ask if they have the converter boxes yet and if they do, go get one. They will have a variety of outputs that you will be able to connect to your 3808.
