[Shop-talk] TV Switch to digital broadcasting

[Gerald Brazil]

35 channels? Sounds like you are on cable, not getting over-the-air
signals......if so, you don't need a converter at all.....they are only
necessary if you receive over-the-air signals....

Being old and poor, I''m not planning to replacing my TV's as we switch to
digital broadcasting, but plan to get converter boxes for all three of my
current TV's. I got my $40 coupon a few days ago and picked up a GE brand
box for the first TV.  I've installed it and everything works fine EXCEPT
(this is where I need help from the list) I'm not able to skip or turn off
the channels that I do not want tosee as I push the channel change button.
I'm receiving about 35 total channels now but 4 are weather channels, and
10+ are Spanish channels.  When I'm channel surfing, I'd like to skip over
those channels and just go to the channels I usually watch.
Is this possible with a converter
box?  Do I need to buy a more expensive box to get this function?  Has
anyone else had this problem. Thanks in advance. Dwade
