Cory.....

You have the right solution. I even found one at Home depot. A 4 chanel modulator for $179. I think I will get one. Then I will buy 4 of those digital converters that the government is giving coupons for. I will tune each of the 4 convertors to a seperate local over the air digital chanel and feed the output of the converter to one of the 4 modulator inputs.

IN essence I will recieve the digital signal and remodulate it back to the old analog chanel and pump it down a 75Ohm antenna cable to my old tv sets. I think it should work pretty good. 4 analog chanels over the air is what I get now, 4,6,10, and 12. The neat thing is that if I ever want to watch a different chanel all I need to do is retune one of the digital converter boxes to different chanel.

You have solved my delima Cory. I was not aware of the multi chanel modulator box.

Here is the link to the one at Home Depot

Bummer!!!! I just discovered that this unit does not modulate to the VHF band. Only to UHF and cable chanels.

Is there a unit that modulates to VHF???
