Satellite Receiver Reviews

I wasn't able to get any channels with this. I tried another antenna and I got two channels at least. When I bought it, it cost 15 dollars more too. Oh well

Does all the Freeview basics without pushing the boat out, but delivers enjoyable pictures and is better looking than its Goodmans clone

This is a very poor product, with little or no quality control. As many have said, the box is incredibly slow to operate and requires extreme patience to use. The "past program" glitch is infuriating, and seems to require that the box be turned off and...

The product was as described and easily was incorporated into my Direct TV system. The seller was very responsive and cooperative.

A clever space-saving solution, and good enough for use with smaller screens

Bought this after reading the reviews and one said can be used on portable with just a loop aerial - and it did. For the money it works ! what more do you want !!

The set top box itself is very good, very clear pictures but the remote is shocking. I returned it to the shop I bought it from and they tried it with two other identical remotes but the result was the same.

Update: Since my last post I have called there service number which was a waste of time. They said they had never heard of the problems I had been having but apparently there remotes are using the same frequency as other remotes ie tv,vcr/dvd,stereo's...

Update: I have had to return my unit to Strong, because it began having the same tuner troubles that other reviewers have reported (the TV tuner works perfectly with the same aerial and cable), and also began giving small electric shocks when the...

I've had this set top box for three years and it is constantly freezing between channel changes, crashing, muting itself, getting picture ratio wrong and turning itself off. Just recently it has started not storing any of the channels so every time you...

I would have given it 5 stars if it had not been for the hassle I had to go through with Directv over the old card and having to purchase a new one. The retailer delivered exactly what they said they would and in great shape.

Had to send it back as the fan ran constantly. Plus was only reimbursed for $10 of the $40 cost to return it.

I have had this unit for five years and can only say that it has performed very well. However, just recently found recordings made from TV programs, when replayed on the TV monitor, have become fuzzy, lost their sharpness. Any suggestions? Old age?...

I was an early adopter of a Toshiba 40H80 Theater Wide HDTV and the DST-3000 back in late 2001. I have always been a fan of Toshibas products and to me they are top notch and for the most part have lived up to and exceeded thier expectations. The...

I too have had some problems, but all are easily fixed, wouldn't recomend unless you're at least a bit tech savvy as the fixes can be a bit awkward to implement. When working it is a good box with plenty of features. As for the problem some people...

Now have had it for over 4 years, and it finally died earlier this year. Replaced all the caps in the power supply and it is now good as new!, and even more reliable than before.. Shame it doesnt have USB or an easy method to extract stuff off HD. Good...

The stb7000 connected up without any problems, the problem was the dvr didn't dvr. A message would come up," no internal device" , the hard drive was not being recognised. After studying the instructions and searching on the internet, I decided to ring...

We have had this about 2 1/2 years. It works well, the upgrade feature is good and it is easy to work. We have another one which is really hard to use so mainly we dont bother and just use this one. I am just going to see if there any any updates for it.

An adequate unit, but too many picture flaws for a better than average rating

We bought this RCA receiver when we got satellite 16 months ago. Its features were adequate but not intuitive. After 4 months of minimal use as a second-room receiver the unit stopped receiving 2/3 of all channels. Tech support offered very little...

I bought one of these used for about $40 for an older widescreen TV, for OTA only. Set up was simple and it worked right out of the box. Scanned my channels and I'm ready to go. I have an outside newer antenna and the closest broadcast station is...
