I'm one of those people who won't succumb to the cable company's offer for a "free" box for each TV. As a matter of fact, in my guest room, I have an older TV in for which I purchased a converter box that the government was selling a couple of years ago. I bought a small antenna from Radio Shack & that, combined with the converter box, gives me OTA programming for 14 stations. One of my favorites is broadcasted from Long Island and my cable company doesn't even provide it. Thanks for the tips. I'll keep tuning in for more. Hi Richard.
