Thanks, now I have another question. With my 7 TVs they are all
hooked up to DirectTV, all with the DirectTV box. Do these boxes
convert or use the digital signal, thus I wouldn't need the digital
converter box needed for analog TVs?

It says therein:
*How do I know if I already have a digital TV (DTV)?*
Many DTVs and digital television equipment will have labels or
markings on them, or statements in the informational materials that
came with them, to indicate that they contain digital tuners. These
labels or markings may contain the words “Integrated Digital
Tuner,” “Digital Tuner Built-In,” “Digital Receiver,” or “Digital
Tuner,” “DTV,” “ATSC,” or “HDTV” (High Definition television). If
your television equipment contains any of these labels or markings,
you should be able to view digital over-the-air programming without
the need for a digital-to-analog converter box. (Remember, you do
not need an HDTV to view free over-the-air digital programming. As
long as your television equipment contains a digital tuner, you can
view over-the-air digital. An HDTV is only necessary if you want to
view High Definition programming in full HD quality.) You should
also check the manual or any other materials that came with your
television equipment in order to determine whether it contains a
digital tuner.
