Just purchased Magnavox TB100mw9 converter box atg Wal-Mart. Took it out of the box and hooked it up and would not work. Tried several outlets and different TV's. No luck.

Checking signal strength is awkward. Reception is OK. I live 43 miles from transmitter. The sound is very weak.

Have purchased Magnavox TB100MW9 converter box and it will not work. Called the oompany and they did not care. I fell like Magnavox should replace this box. Some of these boxes are defected. I have not seen a recall on the box, but there should be a recall and the defected boxes should be replaced at no charge.

I paid full price $49.87 at WM. It captured channels quickly. Easy setup. I made the YouTube antenna for indoor use. It pulls in distant stations great. The default CC looks good. It is turned on/off using menu. Able to delete unwanted channels & manually add week ones.Only gripe is lack of TV control with supplied remote. Audio on the R/L outputs only fair.

I have not seen the picture from any other converter box so I can't offer any comparison, but after plugging this one in I was impressed with the results.

I have a roof-mounted antenna, no cable, and no satellite. Stations that were strong before I don't notice much of a change, but some of the weaker signals come in stronger and clearer. There is some lag when flipping channels that I think is common among digital TVs. I think the remote control is poorly designed with the channel up/down buttons very small compared to the other navigation buttons that aren't active in normal use.

I bought two using the $80 ($40x2) discount cards. Setup is simple, operation is simple, quality of signal provided is high via Comcast cable. Very satisfied with this purchase. Those of you using external antennas for TV reception should consider either cable or satellite to optimize you viewing enjoyment.

Does not deal with the problem of multipathing. Only 15 miles from transmitter and this box will not work. My analog signal is good with some ghosting on rabbit ears. I got a perfect picture on analog with a large directional antenna but still nothing on dtv. I do get PBS stations just fine so the unit works with line of sight. I think the DTV multipath problem will be the biggest hurdle to jump on the road to DTV.
