You’ve got many choices out there now when it comes to DTV converter boxes if you need one, which one should you get? Today I’m taking a look at the Digital Stream DTX9900 Digital to Analog Converter Box, it’s very small, inexpensive and seems to get the job done. Next year of course there will be no more analog TV so I’m one of those people that have to get the DTV converter box, and since I got them I figured why not review them as I’m sure I’m not the only one out there without cable or satellite TV. I figured why pay for something I don’t use, so I dropped it altogether and got a decent antenna, it works fine to get over the air signals and I get the main channels.

I’ve got three kids and most of the time when the TV is on it’s tuned to PBS or we’re watching one of our numerous DVDs or VHS tapes, yes I still have VHS tapes, many in fact. I’ve since switched to Verizon DSL and have never had an outage, except of course when the power goes out, the speed is consistent and I’m very happy with it.Īnyway, as for having cable TV, well that again was hit or miss when it was even on, I was paying for digital cable etc and had 200 and some channels with really nothing on them, at least nothing that I was interested in. I also had numerous problems with even having internet, 10 to 15 days out of every month the internet was out for a few hours per day, and of course there was nothing they could do about it. The internet was a joke, sure it was fast at times, but it was very inconsistent. So I don’t have cable, I haven’t had it for about 7 years now, why you might ask? Well for one I got tired of rates just going up all the time with no explanation, when I dropped my cable and cable internet I was paying a little over $100 per month for something I really didn’t even use.
