My dad was amazed by the picture quality and the sub channels despite the fact that they've had an HDTV picking up OTA DTV for about two years now. I guess he was just surprised to see a clear picture on that old and small set. Unfortunately no matter what I tried I couldn't get the tuner remote to turn the TV on and off.

Think of the DTV STB along the lines of the FM converter back in days of AM radios being standard in cars. OTA DTV is free. All the STB does is decode the digital signal and convert it to an analog signal for an older set. Buy a modern TV with the ATSC tuner built in and no STB is required.
