Wow! I tried the same experiment and could not get anything out of the DTV converter... I figured that I did not have enough signal (outdoor antenna about 12 miles to the transmitter) to overcome the terrible noise figure of the old UHF converter, or perhaps the UHF converter was not stable enough.
