Government Coupon
The. U.S. government has a coupon program in place that allows each household to get two $40 coupons that can be put towards a DTV converter, such as this one. Each household can get up to two coupons. Coupons must be ordered from the government at the DTV transition website. This coupon effectively makes the cost of this converter box $30.
Get-Free HD Claim
The box claims that the converter box will provide with "free HD-TV with no monthly fees." The box has no monthly fees, although it does not actually output an HD signal. It only outputs 480i, whereas HD is 720p or higher.
