I got this Converter box after having issues with my RCA DTV Box losing audio or video from overheating. Huge improvement in reception for some reason. I also love the fact that I can Add Channels and it doesn't lose the ones you already have. I have the Smart Antenna and it works great.

I bought this device because it was one of Consumer Reports's top-rated products. Set up was easy (just four or five connections!) -- I plugged in the power cord, hooked the device to my TV using the AV and RF cables that were included, then connected the antenna cable to the converter box. There are few sockets on the device and thus little room for error. The converter automatically scans for channels and I was able to watch DTV within minutes. The impressive thing about the converter is that it was able to find a few more channels that the other TV in my house, a bona fide HDTV. Both this set and the other use the same roof antenna (I am in the NYC area -- on the other set I could not get the three ABC or PBS channels, but with this converter I could)! Pros: -crisp video, loud volume; does what it was designed to do -remote control is mainly intuitive, only a few weird design choices -remote control has a signal button to display signal strength (which I guess could be useful if I had some kind of indoor antenna I could orient at will; or perhaps it's a way of gauging the weather outside?) -last channel memory -very lightweight and small (I would guess less than 2 lbs) so will not weigh down other devices Cons: -main annoyance: the captions are much smaller than they are through analog and are a strain on the eyes (I'm near sighted). It is nice that their color/transparency/size can be customized, but even the largest size is no match for the analog captions -the box itself only has three buttons: on/off and two channel changers. If anything were to happen to the remote control then there's no way to access the menu for setup/channel scanning or any of the other features -it took me a while to realize the round OK button in the center (why is it ABOVE the number pad?) is the 'enter' button for choosing a channel; I should not have to read a manual to use a remote control (and I don't think this function is mentioned in there) -the remote control uses two AAA batteries (would have preferred AA)
