It's Not your Grandpa's TV Anymore
With the Digital Transisiton behind us now its time to ask what the future of Off Air Television has in store around the next corner. We all read the headlines of how your local Cable Operator has increased subscriptions in huge volumes and how the Satellite Companies have more HD content and lower prices but what about the real world. What is really going on in the real world where people are being laid off from their jobs. The real world where families are moving back home to share space due to the expense of everyday life! Lets face it, times are tough and the economy wont fix itself overnight. Here at Channel Master we see a huge movement in sales generated by the consumer that is searching for "FREE" entertainment. As the public becomes educated on the rich Digital content now available for free via an outdoor or indoor Off Air antenna they start to realize the quality is better and the amount of channels available are greater than what Grandpa had in years past. We believe there is a large population that is beginning to realize what Television for free with an Antenna is all about. As they learn more the make a decision. This decision is more and more becoming a popular choice among those affected by our current economy. The decision is to drop their cable and or satellite service and only go with the Free option of Off Air Digital TV where they can receive Free HDTV and more. An interesting article/blog supporting these ideas to some extent was found on Money Central at MSN.
Its a great read and I invite you to check it out. Everyone could use a little savings and experiencing the new digital TV content for your area could be just what you have been looking for to free up $100 /month for your household.

The Digital Transition – Don’t Wait
The Digital Transition – Don’t Wait
Many people believe they have to wait to June 12th for the digital transition to start. This is just not true. Nearly all of the TV stations in the country are already broadcasting digital and HDTV programming. If you have an analog TV and are using a TV antenna or rabbit ears you can simply get a digital to analog converter box like our CM-7000 and start enjoying DVD quality pictures, program guide information and many more channels than you get with analog broadcast, and it is all available right now. Unlike analog broadcast where channel 5 for example is one channel, with digital, this one channel can carry several different programs. You will have 5.1 which will be the main program channel and you can also have 5.2 and 5.3 which can be a weather channel, local news channel, movie channel or network that carries classic retro programming etc. With digital broadcast the snow and ghost images that could be present in analog reception are gone, leaving a sharp high quality picture even on an old analog TV set. So don’t wait to discover digital TV, it’s out there now, just tune in.

SMARTenna
Omni-directional antennas were a nightmare in an Analog world! Ask anyone who used them and they each have a similar story of the difficulty with which working with Omni-directional antennas presented. Let me reiterate that that was then (Analog) and this is Now (Digital)!
Many reception issues like ghosting, blurry pictures or co channel interference are a nightmare of the past. These problems were do to interference of other analog transmissions for the most part. Put simply, in a digital transmission the picture is either there or it isn't. Channel Master's 3000A SMARTenna has a range of 45 miles, internal amplifier, FM trap and works beautifully in a metro area where a easy-to-install low profile aesthetically pleasing antenna is needed.
Give it a try! You wont be disappointed.

Consumers are Dropping Cable TV and Picking up Antennas
Consumers are switching to digital TV antennas, and here’s why. First, the digital transitiontaking place now (and set to be completed this June) brings the best digital broadcast quality to consumers across all stations. No longer will TVs receive poor
picture quality as
they did in the past, with digital you get a great picture or none at all. Channel Master’s digital TV antennas (i.e. UHF/VHF) are the reliable, hi-quality choice to bring in those digital broadcasts. So whether reception is being viewed on a hi-def or standard-def TV with a converter box, image quality will be the best possible for each type. The best part is that this ‘upgrade’ to digital comes into their homes for free. Second, is the high cost of cable television.
Cable TV pricing has risen a staggering 77 percent since 1996, according to the Bureau of
Labor Statistics. That’s double the rate of infl ation, and it comes at a time when other technology prices are decreasing. “The average family has very little choice as to what channels are included, yet they’re having to pay more and more for those same channels,” said FCC
chairman Kevin Martin.1 With the current state of the economy, consumers are dropping their cable & satellite TV and are buying antennas saving them hundreds of dollars per year.
Consumers that used to sign up for cable or satellite simply to get better picture quality than they could have with an antenna, now realize that they no longer need to pay for services to get the best picture quality. Switching to a digital TV antenna is a smart, low cost alternative to ever increasing cable prices and still brings quality entertainment and news into their homes.
