I've read a couple of the reviews on here and it's obvious that some are not happy and some are pleased. So I'll be ordered in my criticism.
My mother was given this stb when the digital change went through but the channels refused to be in any sort of order no matter how many times we followed the instructions. Sometimes you culd put a channel on turn away and turn back and it's gone off or in a few cases at first would even change the channel. It was not good and we tried in vain to get...
