No surprise that the Magnavox box has issues...I bought one and it is by far the worst of the bunch. Not nearly as user-friendly as the Insignia or DigitalStream that I have, and the lack of analog pass through hinders its usefullness right now. I am more optimistic about digital than I was 6 months ago, mostly because now that stations are switching to full power digital I can see that reception won't be a major problem; at least I'll be able to get the stations I could before, plus the addition of subchannels. 2 of the 3 locals have shut off their analog transmitters already.

On the other hand, tonight I got a call from my stepmother. She has a fairly new LCD set and Dish network. Over the holidays I had to add a splitter so they can watch local stations. Well, for some reason today it's not working. Looks like I have to make time tomorrow to ride over there and see what's wrong.
