Product works!! However no Cable or Analog signals can be detected while using this product.
I purchased this product to watch Cable TV from the nursing home that I was in. However this product does not translate Analog Cable TV. I reached out to the manufacture and although there is the ability to update the firmware to allow analog signals they have for some reason decided not to fix this product. This product will only work with Digital over the air TV locally and for that it works amazingly well! Very clear picture excellent quality and I used a home brew cable slim jim antenna to connect to it!

Local channels on receiver only tv
I bought a receiver only TV. It had no tuner in it. I moved the tv outside and wanted just to pick up broadcast signal without a cable box. Thought this 65” tv was going to be trash without a cable box. This unit did the trick. Get all the local channels and a few more with a $20 antenna. Remote works great.Did just what I wanted it to do

WHAT A HEADACHE! Terrible manual! Don’t buy this if your TV only has a COAX input!
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.

It's meh
They seem to die after a year of use. I like the PVR feature. They get hot. The remote sucks. you need a very short direct line to the device.

Super easy to use and has plenty of channels
The internal digital antenna went out in my dad's television. He wanted to toss the TV but I told him we can get a box like this one and it'll still work. I ordered this one after reading reviews and it is legit!! Easy to connect and picks up way more channels than the built in digital antenna did.

An affordable upgrade
I use this as an end around for a shorted antenna line in on my 7+ year old 46" TV. Set ups straight forward, it works with my last tuners remote, user interface is the same, so I'll assume a service life based on the last two of around 3-4 years, long enough to justify delaying a new TV, we'll see in a few years.

Get many “local” free channels
This is a great box and have already bought another one and going to purchase one more for the guest room just to have. We decided to get rid of cable because we were mostly streaming and why pay for extra channels and this gives you all the local channels plus extras you didn’t even know you had like ID which is my favorite ( investigator, crime true crime) my dads favorite is the western and old movie channel ( compare to TCM) I recommend

A lot of channels, clear picture
Bought this because the antenna port on my TV broke. I was able to hook this up with HDMI cable and hooked my antenna up to this box and it works great. Picked up 51 channels and they are much clearer then with just an antenna alone. It's small and easy to set up. Definitely recommend.

Bueno.
Sí funciona, el punto malo que le veo es que se calienta demasiado, todo lo demás creo que esta bien.
