Unfortunately I'm waiting for my unit to upgrade our master antenna... [img]graemlins/awcrap.gif[/img]
Yeah, we have Dishnetwork locals and basic(no prem's) and to get a HD signal, we would have to buy a HD converter box, and those are something crazy like $699.00 + a local's UID slot for another $149.00. But they will come down soon.. But with DVD's in progressive scan at 540p, it's crisp... Our local cable company DOES offer a HD converter that you get when you get cable--for a larger cost I'm sure, but HD Discovery channel in 1024i is JAW dropping. It's like looking through a clean window to another place... (a friend has it).

I'll just wait. I can't afford crap right now anyway [img]smile.gif[/img] . I got that HD tv when I got my MicroSoft Money a while back. Nothing like playing Playstation2 on a 51 inch widescreen! [img]smile.gif[/img]
