    Great for watching local channels on older, or probably any TV. A little slow when activating and changing channels, but works great once up and running. I hate the fact that now we need devices to get broadcast TV, but I guess that's how technology works.

    Not very much better than the 4 year old one it replaced. Software is virtually identical. Channel resolution not better. This is an area that is ripe for an improved product.

    Print on instruction sheet too small. I had to figure out what color plugs went where to get to record on VCR.

    I am grateful for this Converter Box; it really does function well with my old TV. I even get more channels than I can watch, I am able to pick and choose channels to watch. Love it.

    I would recommend this unit only if you are not expecting much. I found if you try timer recordings you need to power down the unit before setting up your recordings. I have watched the unit when I didnt do this and it said going to record mode but then I get error message and it does not record. It also has sync probs with voice/video. As I said if you are not expecting much its better than nothing. Definitely needs a product update.

    Would not connect to a separate hard drive. Do not know if i got the only bad one there or if any of them will recognize a separate hard drive.other than that it worked good. It brought in the channels off my antenna really nicely. But what I bought it for was the DVR capability and that was no good, it would recognize a stick but playback of a stick is terrible it skips and flutters. If your primary goal is to record tv shows do not buy this unit.

    I am running composite video thru an adapter to vga and this box outperforms others in menu visibility quality. I really like the rca dolby audio digital out to the AVR as well. You will need a good antenna signal for OTA.
