It's getting down to crunch time and I need to choose a converter box soon. Here's my short list with + and - summarys from other reviews that I've seen. This was originall on an excel spreadsheet and a lot prettier so bare with me.
DTVPal Plus
+ TVGOS Channel Menu rocks
+ Pretty cheap with coupon (Less than $15.00 shipped)
+ Better Reception than old DTVPal
- Video Quality is OK
- No S-Video Connection
RCA DTA800B
+ Smart Antenna Option (eh...)
+ Good Reception
+ EPG is Super with a 9 channel "what's on now, what's on next" feature
- No S-Video Connection
- No Zoom options
Channel Master CM-7000
+ Great Reception (can pull in deeper stations)
+ S-Video Connection
- Reviews are mixed about video quality
- EPG Not as good as DTVPal or DTA800B (Only shows programming on current channel)
I've got 20 days until my coupons expire, is there any other boxes I need to add to my list? Which should I go with?
