My set has a UHF tuner, so I figured it'd be nice to try and interface with it.

That's what I'm trying to avoid. Right now, I've got a DTV box plugged into my set, and change channels with a remote. I'd like to be able to broadcast the DTV signal in analog so I can pick it up without attaching a box to my set, and broadcast each channel I want on a different frequency so I can select them via the tuner on my set.

My gripe, exactly. I'm wanting to use the over the air signals, and I realize I'll have to use a DTV box to convert them, but is there a specific recommendation for a type of DTV box, or will any standard box be as good as any other?
