COMMENTS:
  • This is the most affordable over-the-air set-top box tuner I have reviewed. However, it will not work for digital cable, only over-the-air. A quality remote is included, but the units only video output is via component cables. It does have a digital 5.1 capability via coaxial output. The unit is very good at picking up distant stations and with multi-path. It also can be used as a downconverter to analog TV using the composite output.
