... Is it possible?

And... How come you NEED a cable box? What happened to just plugging the coaxial directly into the TV?

No, it's not possible, the tuner only outputs one channel.

You don't need a cable converter, you just need a TV with a digital tuner.

Well since your down in Florida about 15 miles from me, I'm in Sunrise, I will reply.

I don't have a "Box". I split the coax and can watch 3 different channels (on three TV's), ALL the Local channels (2-13) in High Def (1080i) and get my HSI.

I've never even seen a cable TV box in my life. My old analog sets get the old channels (2-76) in analog naturally. My high def set picks up (2-76) in analog at the old locations and 2-13 in high def in at some funny channels (86-112 etc.)

Now I might be wrong, but I think it's the law that cable companies re-broadcast the local TV over-the-air channels - in the clear in Digital (and High Def if so broadcasted.)

I'm on "Comcast Broward CO - Cable (Pompano Beach)."
