It does put out some heat, even when off it still remains warm, so I would recommend elevating it a few inches for better air flow.

Using this converter box for my 1990's RCA analog TV with an attic mounted RCA antenna. Near a major city, so I'm picking up around 50 channels - 25 channels with a strong signal.

I'm very happy we purchased this for our tv in our RV. We had a tv that didn't have the same frequency as our rv tv, so this little guy came in handy. It picks up allot of channels and we use a hdmi cord to our tv. It also allows you to record OTA channels onto a flash drive. I highly recommend this device

WHAT A HEADACHE! Terrible manual! Don’t buy this if your TV only has a COAX input!
Reviewed in the United States on March 7, 2021Verified Purchase
DON’T BUY THIS UNLESS YOU WANT A HEADACHE! The instructions are 2 pages and don’t explain anything correctly. Here are my issues with this device:
1. There is a port labeled ANT LOOP next to ANT IN and nothing in the manual explains why you need 2 antenna ports which seem to both take COAX cable.
2. There is a port labeled COAXIAL which is completely left off the diagram on the box (see picture). That should have been my first RED flag. I assumed that is where you would connect the COAX cable from your old TV as older TVs only have a COAX input and picture would show on CH. 3 or 4 like it did when I had cable.
3. There is nothing in the manual that says which channel the picture would show on (CH. 3 or 4 or something else?)
4. When I connected the COAX from my TV to this box and did a channel scan on my TV, my Sharp TV said there was a signal on every channel 2-125. This can’t be right. Unplugging this box from power and doing another scan showed no channels were found so somehow this box is sending signals on all channels 2-125.
5. You can’t tell whether the box is ON or OFF. I think when the box displays “0000” it is OFF and when it displays “—-“ it is ON. This is just based on the channel scan observations in #4 and the difference in the static screens that I see.
6. Tech support rep from Amazon that tried to help me troubleshoot this device for 1.5 hours and used to work for Comcast was as stumped as I was. He was clearly proficient as his ideas were correct but this box refused to work using a COAX output.
So in short, my TV only had a COAX input and the description for this box says it supports output to COAX as it lists COAX out and has a port for it but apparently this is just junk. The cable box I was using before “cutting the cord” would just connect via COAX to my TV and the cable box had a selector to say it would transmit on CH 3 or 4 - very straight forward. Maybe this works with RCA and HDMI but my old TV doesn’t have any other inputs apart from COAX and I can definitely confirm this doesn’t work with old style TVs using COAX.

The biggest problem is the unit overheats then because of this it does not work correctly, I did put a fan on it which seemed to solve the problem but its ridicules to have to do this. Also, I record about 8 shows a day then watch them later, the unit locks up at least twice a day when I watch the shows which requires the unit to be unplugged and plugged back in, but then it plays the show without a problem once plugged back in, also for some reason it did not record any of my shows one morning but this may have been related to the overheating. I also don’t like the remote buttons because they are very small, but the remote does seem to work with the unit reasonably good. Also, there is no 12-hour clock option (24-hour only). One other thing I find odd is there is no brand name on the box plus when the unit boots up the brand name does not come up either (ubisheng), just seems a little weird. Lastly the directions are VERY limited, and or have minimal info, unless you have owned one of these types of units before (they all have the same basic software) you would need to just figure it out.

These tuners keep getting smaller and more efficient. Hooked it up, turned it on. It immediately went to scan stations. Took a minute and found 105 channels! My old iView tuner only found 89 and most were too weak to play without breakup. Extreme quality of picture and sound. Recorder excellent too. No dropouts...and when off it displays a very accurate clock.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

We have an old TV in our trailer because we've never been able to find a new one to fit in the boxed off area that was built for a TV since the trailer is a 2001. This box allowed us to covert the TV to digital so that we could get over the air TV signals. It worked like a charm. We added a digital antennae and now we can watch TV when we are camping.
