There are 2 ways you can set this up: according to the research I did to answer your question, there are two ways the fcc recommends hooking up a digital converter box to your vcr/tv. The first way doesn't require a splitter but only allows you to watch/record one channel at a time. The second way DOES require a splitter and allows you to watch one channel while recording another.

Connecting a VCR, DVD Recorder, and Analog TV Using One DTV Converter Box The countdown to the end of analog television broadcasts marches on. However, along with analog televisions, your VCR or DVD recorder may also be affected. If your Television, VCR, and DVD recorder only have analog NTSC tuners, and you receive your programs with an antenna, ordinarily you would need a separate DTV converter for each of them, in order to continue recording TV broadcasts on those devices after February 17, 2009.

However, there is a way you can use just one DTV converter for all of them, with a catch. The following steps will illustrate how you can use just one DTV converter box for your Analog TV, VCR, and/or DVD recorder: 1. Connect your Antenna cable to the to antenna input on the DTV converter box.2.

Split the RF output of the DTV converter box into two separate feeds using a Two-Way CABLE SPLITTER. 3. Send one RF feed from the splitter to the antenna/cable input on the VCR and the other RF feed from the splitter to the antenna/cable input on the DVD recorder.4.

Connect the RF output feed from the VCR to the RF input connection on an RF MODULATOR.5. Connect the AV outputs (Red/White/Yellow) of the DVD recorder to the AV inputs of the RF Modulator.6. Connect the RF output of the RF modulator to the Ant/Cable input on your TV.7.

Connect the AV outputs (Red/White/Yellow) of the VCR to one of the AV input sets on your DVD recorder.8. OPTIONAL: If your analog TV has a set of AV inputs (yellow, red, white) in addition to an RF input, you can connect the AV outputs (Red, White, and Yellow) of the DTV converter Box to the AV input jacks on your TV. If your TV only has one audio input jack, use a "Y" adapter to combine the Red and White connections into a single audio input connection.

With this setup - you will be able to do the following: 1. Receive and Watch converted DTV channels on your TV either via accessing channel 3 or 4 on your TV or (if you also chose step 8) by using the AV inputs of your TV. The picture quality will be slightly better from the DTV converter using the AV input option, but this your choice.2.

Record converted DTV channels on your VCR or DVD recorder. THE CATCH: You cannot record two different channels at the same time, nor can you watch one channel and record another at the same time. For this, your TV, VCR, and DVD recorder would need their own dedicated DTV converter boxes or you would have to buy a new TV or DVD recorder with its own built-in DTV (ATSC) tuner.In addition, when using an external DTV converter box, in order to do a timer recording on your DVD recorder or VCR, you must set the DVD recorder or VCR to record on Channel 3 or 4 at the time you want, and then make sure that the DTV converter box is set to the actual channel you intend to record.

Leave the DTV converter box TURNED ON.3. Record from the VCR to the DVD recorder by accessing the DVD recorder's line input. NOTE: Keep in mind that you can only copy home recorded videos, you cannot make copies of most commercial VHS movies as they are copy protected.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
