ATSC Digital-to-Analog TV Converter Box

Artec Digital Set-Top Box T3A (ATSC)

Are you still watching traditional TV with "ghosted" or "snowy" pictures around? Why aren't you watching crystal clear High Definition TV (HDTV) when it is free to receive from the air? After February 17, 2009 the analog channel will be shut down and the TV stations will only be allowed to broadcast on a single digital channel. If you watch TV over the air, using an antenna or "rabbit ears", you will need to get either a converter box or a digital TV by February 17, 2009.

With Artec's New Digital-to-Analog Converter Box, turning your traditional analog TV into a digital TV is as easy as 1-2-3.
