Alright, so I received my government subsidized coupon for a converter box. Anyone have a recommendation on a TV converter box?

I only used 2 models of DTV boxes. One hands down NO way would I buy again, and it died 5 months later... Magnavox box from Walmart.
The other is an Insignia box in which I found it to be very nice, and reliable. Heres a link http://www.amazon.com/Insignia-NS-DXA1-Digital-Converter-Regular/dp/B001AH8BGW/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1244082607&sr=8-4

Thanks, Steve. I'll take a look at the Insignia.
Anybody else? I assume the rest of you are on cable, satellite, or have TV's with digital tuners. -
I have a Zenith from Radio Slack in a spare bedroom which has been trouble free. $19.99 with coupon.
Great picture and sound. Hooked it up to 19.99 antenna from Monoprice. Pretty good."The good thing about science is that it's true whether or not you believe in it." Neil deGrasse Tyson. -

I found out that the Insignia is built by Zenith, so there's another vote for that. Agree picture is great for an old analog set.
