will it pick different channels than the converter box
1325466
the antenna does not have channels... it only gathers signals from available sources for the converter box to work with... it may allow the converter box to lock on to more channels if they are available - maybe better signal strength than rabbit ears... i have found out that mine is directional... pointing one way {say north-south} i get X channels with signals and i can lock on Y of them... point {east-west} get some of the some of the same channels and can lock onto others that were not clear on the [north-south] setting... also changing from flat to verticle makes a difference in signal strength.... i live in indianapolis not far from the transmitting towers and still have the directional issue... hope this helps

It will depend on what channels your provider carries. I get channels that TW won't carry, all in true HD.

your smart HDTV will get local channels once you connect an antenna. The converter box is for old TVs. Get a magnovox or phillips antenna.

I'm not sure. In that sense I think its just a regular remote control so you would enter in the number of the channel you want but not programming stations to the numbers. Its a pretty basic universal remote.

I guess if you have a remote that works threw walls you can change the channel. But if your asking if you can see two different channels then that would be a negative

There are 2 channels I believe. You can set it up to run all or 2 channels differently. FYI, mine still works perfect.

how do i get channels to change or to start working so i can set up my cable box

Yes you can. As long as you have reception for that channel it will work even if you don't have reception for that channel it will tune to that channel

That's what I bought it for, and was incredible disappointed. No it won't. It will connect them both, but it doesn't send any signal though. For that you need a converter box.

I used channel 3 on mine on the switch. I just plugged it in and plugged the Dish converter into it and it does it thing.

Probably, but you would have to have it connected to a converter box as the signals are now digital - not analog anymore. Any antenna will pick the signals (analog or digital) but the old sets need the converter box.

I imagine it would work with the digital convertor box. But I suggest putting the antenna before the convertor box

No, this box only modulates an input onto a selected CATV channel. You need something else to transmit over the air.

Yes, it should work fine - however it will only be the main output, not individual channels.

Not if you are using newer Tv this just a antenna. If you need converter now you will need again

The cable box acts as a tuner. If you don't have one ,you will have to buy the tuner separately. I would ask an expert at Best Buy of Radio Shack about what type. Good luck.

If it was for local channels only you could have skiped the converter box and connected stright into your new TV. Try this first.

Probably not, it is just a switch to select one input line or the other. So if you had cable and antenna,you could switch the input between the two sources. Your Verizon box probably has some type of de-scrambler for the signal from some if not all of the channels.
