I did not need a converter for my TV, since it is not that old. I just have a stupid rabbit ears antenna behind the TV (perhaps 2.5 feet long). Digital is way better than analog in terms of pic quality, but not in terms of robustness (as you say, probably because I pick up weak signals, reception is easily disrupted and you get those "frozen screens" while it waits for new, usable signal).
