Hello all,

Does anyone know where I can get a converter box to allow me to use my coach antenna? I thought they were still around but on checking with Wally World - they don't carry them anymore. Maybe I missed the boat on this one!

JR Wright powerjon says his WallyWorld has them, I would ask him to pick one up for you. All of the Walmarts I know of have cleared them all out.

I got several off of Craigslist. But I notice some poor soul here in Dallas has put up an ad each of the last six weeks asking for one.

I got one at Wmart but grabbed a real nice one on ebay. I use it on our main tv at home. Might check there.
