Wondering whether anyone out there has looked into the converter boxes that are eligible for the $40 government coupon. I found several online and from what I can tell they're all similar and very very basic. Any out there that might do a little bit more? By chance, any HD boxes eligible?

The reviews I read say the Zenith box is rated the best. It has the most sensitive tuner and moves quickly between channels with little lag. I bought one just to experiment and am pretty happy with it. I plan to reactivate my rooftop antenna just to see how it works with the Dayton signals, which I regularly received in analog. The Best Buy model is a different brand name but its the exact same box.

does this reciever also process HDTV signals?
