    Smaller than expected

    The OTA tuner is very small. Works as expected. It has a simple web interface to scan for channels if you switch antennas or positions. The packaging is very wasteful though. Everything could have fit in the tray the turner was sitting in. 2/3 of the packaging was air.

    Performed ok and used for one day. Needs direct Ethernet connection and this adds more wires. I discovered Airtv. Works better, is wireless and integrates with Sling TV. Tried to return but got refused by Best Buy due to outside of return period. I’m sad bout that.

      Your way of using the HDHomeRun is one of our most recommended ways, just because it's so easy to set up! Plus it keeps everything neat and clean in one box. If you ever have any questions or comments, feel free to visit or forum. And in the meantime, enjoy your Duo!

      Ha ha. Depending on your setup, that can be a pretty apt name. These days we are hopeful that setup is getting easier and easier, so not only the dorks know how to do it. For example, we arguably have the easiest live TV setup in the industry. Plug it in. Install the app. Done. No channel scanning or anything.

      We greatly respect all our third party software partners. They can do amazing work. As long as it works for you, we're pleased. With that said, if you do buy a QUATRO, you'll be able to use all your tuners at once! Six tuners is a lot of tuners particularly with the new Premium TV option that lets you record cable channels with your Over The Air tunner. Welcome to the HDHomeRun family!
