LG set-top prototype uses 5th-generation chip; decent reception on Capitol Hill
September 19th, 2005The prototype set-top converter box LG demonstrated on Capitol Hill last week did in fact include the 5th-generation LG chip, according to TV Technology.
Four electronics companies showed lawmakers their digital-to-analog converters, and all provided basically good reception with an indoor antenna, in a location where multipath interference would be expected. If the final versions of these products arrive on the market working just as well as the prototypes, and eventually sell at reasonable prices, fewer households will be left behind by the digital TV transition.
