I think I am more surprised that this little box is not included with the initial package, the hearing aids were certainly expensive enough to have included this and the remote control which will do the same thing.

I needed to find a way for him to watch TV because I am losing him into isolation and possibly early dementia. So thank you to all who gave their time to help me. If I have problems I might be back for more help.
People do not understand about hearing loss. Just making things louder does not help at all since it is a certain range of sounds that cannot be heard. Turning up the volume just makes the range of sound that can be heard louder. I hate going into restaurants and even people's homes where they feel that background music is needed. For hearing impaired people it just makes conversation difficult to impossible.
