      <description>&lt;div&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;October 26, 2008 at 2:59 pm&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;"Purchased this product because it is free with coupon, and still have another coupon in case it dies.

Setup

The channel autoscan takes ~3-5 mintues. It finds all the local stations + 
some that the analog could not get at all, although some digital stations are 
weaker than the analog equivalent.

Quality

Picture quality is great, audio quality has a little added noise compared to 
analog of same channels.

The RF output died after only 2 weeks of usage. We did not abuse the unit at 
all: we used it for less than 10 hours/day and unplugged it during the night, 
which should not be unreasonable. We have now resorted to the composite out 
and who knows how long that will last! Thankfully the composite output 
quality is the same as the RF output quality. Plan to give updates if the 
composite dies and what happens when we complain to HDAcess.

Remote

The box has only three buttons! Power on, channel up and channel down. Thus you NEED the remote to do necessary tasks, like add channels. Bad news if it 
breaks!

Features

You cannot scroll through the EPG without changing the channel, which I find 
annoying. The EPG does allow you to scroll through 12 hours of future 
programming on your current channel.

The box has a signal strength indicator, which can be turned on from the 
SIGNAL button on the remote, and turns off upon channel change or the SIGNAL 
button. It gives you a number from 0-100, and it needs about 25+ to display 
the channel.

The Menu has the following items:
Auto Channel Searching [allows option of full scan OR add channels, which is 
very nice in case you can't get reception of all channels at once]
Channel List Editing [you can manually "delete" (i.e. hide) a channel so that 
you skip it when you surf]
Change Password [for Parental Controls]
Parental Controls [V-chip]
Advanced Closed Caption [Style, Size, Font, Text Color, Text Opacity, 
Background Color, Background Opacity, Edge Effect, Edge Color]
Language [English, Spanish, French]
Auto Power Down Timer [Off, 1, 2, 3, 4 Hours]
Time Zone

Overall

Does what we want it to do, but VERY disappointed that the RF output died 
within a week of purchasing."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description>
