I finally got the wife an HDTV converter box, and it puts out a fair amount of noise. The noise seems to be both radiating from the box itself and travelling up the power lines - yippee! It's the "Insignia" house brand from Best Buy. Does anyone know if newer HDTV sets, which don't need the converter box, also give off a lot of noise, via either direct radiation and/or up the power lines? To keep the peace here, I would forego my next DX purchase (or two) and get a new HDTV if that would fix the problem.
Kevin-I have no idea if the digital TV receivers cause any noise, BUT the converted box does, and big time.
If you want I have an idea you might try before you lay out some big bucks for a new TV.
I will write you off the list IF your interested in cheap and easy way to (perhaps) get rid of the noise.
