I've got an older Sony HDTV CRT (2006?) that can't pick up channel 44.1, while my newer DTV converter box (Artec) can, using the same cable. Must be because this Sony was older, so I am guessing newer Sony tuners are more sensitive.
I wonder if there's a list of DTV convert boxes rated by tuner sensitivity, because I have a variety.
Also, this Sony TV can pick up channel 6 (CHEK) while it's still on analog with my current poor setup, but the picture is static as expected, but watchable.
