Hi Perhaps someone can explain this to me in very simple terms. Since satellite signals are digital. Since The satellite receiver receives the digital signal and turns it into analog signals which can be used by the analog television. Why do you need a converter for the analog televisions

Hi Marsha, The DTV converter boxes are needed only to receive local television stations directly over the air and only for older television sets that do not have a digital tuner in them. Part of the agreement to require television to turn off the analog and transmit only digital signals by F
