chainsaw 5 Posted May 17, 2013 i was at work last month and what did I find in a junk drawer? A brand new digital converter box. I asked my boss what was the story with it. He told me that he and a coworker had bought it cheap in 2009 to use with a tv in the pharmacy and that I could have it. Win. I'm putting the box in my center console and buy an antenna to mount either on the back deck or near the front glass by the front defroster. anybody used one of theses in a car or RV while moving? I hear reception is crystal when parked and choppy like satellite during a storm while in motion, Thoughts? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crackinhedz 51 Posted May 17, 2013 Yeah watching while vehicle is in motion might be a problem.You would need an ATSC-M/H tuner, which was designed for mobile viewing...stations broadcasting in M/H are few and far between.http://www.mdtvsignalmap.com/ 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh well, it was free and might be fun to hook up 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crackinhedz 51 Posted May 18, 2013 (edited) While I have heard of people watching standard ATSC while moving (granted not a stable signal) I think a lot would depend on station location, line of site, antenna location in the vehicle etc. but couldn't hurt to try.But yeah, Parkin lot pimpin for sure!
