[Novalug] OT TV Converver Box Coupon Program

[Ken Kauffman]

A lot of the machines at stores don't have analog bypass.   I ordered
two coupons for my grandparents and then got these boxes from Amazon:

http://www.amazon.com/Zinwell-ZAT-970A-Digital-Analog-Converter/dp/B001DVZXC0

The caveat with ordering through Amazon is their coupon system.  You
have to order each box independently since it will not let you stack
coupons in your order.
