 Works Well, no surprises November 30, 2008

This converter was easy to set up, quickly adds all available digital channels and the picture quality is really a lot better than I imagined. With the set-top antenna I had to change the orientation to get more than three clear analog channels. All available over-the-air channels are now clear with digital, using the same antenna. br / br /This box is a little slow to change channels. As far as I can tell, it's also not possible to delete one subchannel without deleting them all for a given channel, so if you have duplicates (one is the same as the next except it's only partial screen) it's not possible to just get rid of one. That said I'm overall happy with my purchase.
 Remote alone makes this a "don't buy" November 17, 2008

The basic functions (picture, etc.) work fine. However, I later bought an Insignia converter at Best Buy and then found out how deficient the features and remote of the Philco unit are. The Philco remote has some buttons that are as small as pinheads; it must be seen to be believed. Also it lacks direct button access to features such as zoom,letterbox, etc. You need to activate setup and go thru 2 more menus with those tiny buttons, unlike the Insignia which has direct access to that and many more functions. I'm sorry I did not buy 2 Insignia units, but it's hard to get this info until after you buy and operate the unit.

Unit was very easy to setup and worked great. No problems have since order a second unit as we were that impressed.

This is great! I was really impressed with the A/V connections AND directions on how to connect to an existing cable/satellite box and still watch SAT TV or "digital". This is a great product and I highly recommend it. To be honest, I was surprised to see what I was missing on the digital channels. And it greatly enhances the picture to absolutely no snow at all.
