  • "The box works well. No previous channel button?!?"
    3.0 stars
    on by rotenk

    Pros: The pros of this converter is that the package is small, the buttons on the remote are big, you get the analog pass through, and the box can be operated even if you can?t find the remote. Picture appears to be clear.

    Cons: The converter is really slow to tune to channels and the biggest drawback of all is that there is no previous channel button on the remote. Well worth an additional $10. There are a few channels now that just display and unusable signal message.

    Summary: This is my first converter box. I plan to buy the Insignia next. Simple reason is the absence of the previous channel button on the remote of the RCA. So if you are flipping back and forth between channel 04-1 and 56-3 you have to actually push in 041 and 563 to go back and forth.
