We have DirecTV, so I don't think it will affect us much. I have 4 boxes installed, and I have the outputs split off to feed all the TVs that we use. I use remote repeaters so that you can change channels on the box from any of the TVs in any room.

HOWEVER, I do have some small sets that are receiving air signal from 3 snowy, distant local channels. I will miss the mechanical tuner noises: My Zenith 25EC58 with the Space Command 500 and Ka-Klunk rotary tuner, and I will miss being able to go up to my Kaye-Halbert 1952 B&W console and grab the big knob to change channels.

Maybe I'll set up an in-house repeater like they have in big apartment houses. I mean the ones where you can use any TV to view any of several cameras that are injected on unused channels into the building antenna system. Maybe get 5 or 6 digital converter boxes and set the output to each of the old local channels, and trunk them into one cable. That way, when I klunk the tuner around to the outputted channels from the converter boxes, I will be receiving the new digital signal already converted to the old channel.
