Inyx13No offense but WHY would you want to watch UHD content on a TV with 420p resolution? As to the answer I have no idea since I've never heard of this kind of converter..Regardless I'd say its time to upgrade and Black Friday deals are crazy..saw a 75" for $398 today 🙂 Happy Holidays too
Why would I want to replace perfectly good equipment because it has been deemed to be no longer good enough only to be replaced by something that would have a shorter life cycle because it will work out of the box?
I'm not willing to just throw away something because it is the easy path.

As someone who still uses an I-pod classic, I truly understand, however, eventually it becomes the path of lesser returns until it is no longer usable. I hope you can do what you are trying to do, but all of us here are trying to be as helpful as possible.

Thank you for not being dismissive.
I understand the path of lesser returns. That's why I'm trying to find alternatives to buying new. Right now, I'm not willing to spend almost $400 CDN if I can get by with spending maybe $100 to get an acceptable result.
If eventually everything works and doesn't provide a viable result, I'll consider the larger spend and find a home for the equipment that works so someone else can use them.

Sorry, I had no idea you were in Canada, and that does change the prices I was looking at.
I completely understand about not wanting to simply throw something away that still functions. But unfortunately in the world of home electronics, sometimes it's simply a fact of life. When North America switched from analog NTSC to digital ATSC, it made all the old TVs worthless, and especially sets like yours with no inputs but the antenna/RF.
