What is a guy to do? I just found out the Power Acoustik Tv dvd player I had on the Mis Dee is no longer available. I guess because it was not digital. Feb it is going to wipe out the old stuff. ... right?
Henrym on the Little Toot... What kind of tv did you install? The mount really looks good as well. If you would share information on both I would sure appreciate it. Does it play DVDs? They make some pretty small dvd players so I guess that would be no problem.
Anyone got any other input on this topic.

All you'll have to do is add a converter box to receive digital signals with your TV.
Here's a link...
https://www.dtv2009.gov/
We bought a couple of those after getting the coupons - total cost less than $10 each. The little TV we use on Wild Blue is the only one that will need it. The other is a spare for when we visit our daughter and have to watch the "old" TV in our room at their place.
Your current antenna will work. Hope that helps.
Best wishes,

Another option is the slingbox, which I learned about here. Great gadget!

Quote: | Another option is the slingbox | Agreed! I had a hard time getting my arms around the concept but I'm so glad I did. Now I've got cable tv and recorded dvr movies (via internet) on Adeline AND on my pocket pc (Sprint (HTC) Touch). _________________ Pete
