Sonic View SV8000 High Definition Free-to-air Satellite Receiver

The only channels I was able to pick up was the local channels here in New York city. All other channels are blocked! I believe you must use your own satelite dish to get anything else.

Coolsat 7000 Time Machine USB Free-to-Air PVR

This is a very nice FTA receiver, easy to set up and very simple to use. Of course, it only gets the two "free" channels if you are trying to use it for bootlegging DISH network, but if you use it the way it was intended - true Free-To-Air television...

USB 2.0 NTSC TV Tuner Stick - U718

First off do not pay more than $30 for this item. Although Amazon lists this item as $70+ the only sellers sell it for around $25-$30. With good reason. The Good: It works..but if you use Vista be aware the "Mygica" software required to run this...

Panasonic CQ-C8305U

The Panasonic CQ-C8305U performs the basic functions of a digital-age car stereo well with great audio-tweaking options, intuitive file and folder navigation, and a worthwhile iPod interface. The stereo's full-motion color display adds little to its...

Kubik Scart Freeview Receiver DVB-T Adapter Box

The idea is fine: a scart dongle plugs into the back of the TV. All that you see of the whole setup is the little device that receives the signal from the unit's remote control. Units similar to this have been around for some time. Problems begin with...

I bought the digisender receiver transmitter pack, and then later an additional receiver. I have had constant problems, the picture is very prone to interference, and i have had many problems getting the remoter control "eye" to work reliably. Lately I...

Panasonic TU-DST52 HDTV Tuner

The TU-DST52 is just over 11 inches wide and 7 inches deep, and costs $340. No receiver is smaller, and, as far as I know, none is cheaper. Compare this to Panasonic's first receiver, the TU-DST50, which went on sale in fall 1998. It was 17 inches...

Terk XMicro XM Satellite Radio Antenna

Removing the pink plastic part on the antenna connector is not a snap. Following the instructions on the insert did absolutely nothing for me. I had to break the plastic off to get it removed. Works fine once you get that piece of plastic off.

Purchased one and couldn't get the Caller ID feature to work. Called Hughes support at 1-800-454-2013 and was told that it was a know problem but they had a corporate policy directing them to not issue RMA's for this problem. Otherwise, the RF remote...

Philips DSX5350

The product is very nice. The only problem I had was it didn't come with an access card. I could have purchased a new unit for the price I paid for the unit and the new card.

ADS Technologies HDUP1500 HDTV Upconverter

Start off with the bad news. I have a Motorola DVR / Converter box with my Comcast cable service, and the Comcast remote sends the ADS box into gonzo fits. Attempting to use the menu button on the cable remote causes the ADS box to switch inputs. Using...

Kenwood USA KDC-MP205

Are you guys joking? If you're having TOC errors you're not burning the right dics or you have a faulty player, I've owned this stereo for about a year now and have had no problems with its functionality and performance, as for the joystick it's very...

TERK TV5 Low-Profile Amplified Indoor Antenna With Video Switch

YMMV, but I recommend seeking a better solution for rural usage. The antenna was markedly inferior to a severely tattered outdoor directional antenna. May not have been much of an improvement over traditional low-end rabbit ears - but was not compared...

Thomson DTI2300 Set Top Box

I think that some of these reviews maybe out of date as I suspect the software has been updated since. I found the machine very easy to set up, works flawlessly with my trusty old Tivo ( which was my main prerequisite ). Initially I thought the colour...
