Avoid this unit
"Purchased two units. Both TV's used rabbit ear antennas and had excellent analog signal performance. Adding these digital units was a performance disappointment.

[...] The antenna doesn't know or care about the type of modulati..." Read Full Review »

"The Digital Stream DTX9900 converter box works great. We use an antenna, and now get 33 stations instead of the 9 that we received before, and they come in with great clarity. Unlike several reviews which claim that one can only record with a VCR by using the instant recording method, and not by the …" Read Full Review »

"In the Cincinnati area most stores sell the cheapest DTV converter boxes they can get. This one is $10 more than wal-mart and best-buy, but it is well worth the extra money. The unit comes with batteries for the universal remote, and it includes the RF cable. The TV universal remote is easy to se …" Read Full Review »
