Does anyone have any data on 12v converter boxes?

The TVs on boats and rvs are perfectly fine for what they're doing and they were cheap, but to replace them with a flat dtv is a considerable investment... and what about hurricane season?

A minor correction:  3 db is twice power, not 1 db.

The formula is: db = 10 log(P2 / P1) = 20 log (v2 / v1) where P is power and v is voltage.

12 db is an increase in power of about 15.8.

SolidSignal.com has good info. Note new Channel Master model 4228HD covers down to channel 7. Channel Master 4228 has the highest gain of 12 db. Remember that 1 db = a doubling of power so 12 db is a lot.
