The remote is too small and there isn't any Program Guide even for one hour ahead. Emailed them and they said that this unit was just an introductory model (Then why is sit still available after one year of the digital switchover)? Some of the buttons on the remote must be pressed several times before they activate that function. The picture and sound on my TV is excellent, but with the wonky remote and no EPG, I can't recommend this box...especially now that I know it has been discontinued which wasn't mentioned in the reply to my email.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7127332643110937777.post-53880650539972299222010-09-23T17:44:22.148-06:002010-09-23T17:44:22.148-06:00I purchased 2 of these with the coupons and 1 year...I purchased 2 of these with the coupons and 1 year later both if them are dead, why would they even sell inferior products, I don't understand. The people that purchase these cannot afford cable and the coupons were made to help these people, now I guess they are just out of luck and cant watch tv at all. I will never purchase anything that is made by this company, just trying to cheat the consumer.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7127332643110937777.post-67535707788220766742010-04-27T08:28:09.311-06:002010-04-27T08:28:09.311-06:00Uses 9 volt external power supply.

Plus it has a remote which is great bc we lost the remote to this tv( i have a symphonic tv dvd vcr. It was built in Mar03. If only I had waited just 1 yr it would have a digital tuner, MAN !). If I understand correctly from the coverter box is how the channels must be changed right? So we wont have to annoyingly push the buttons on the tv.<br /><br />But you dont reccoment it :(<br /><br />@Mark Brice Univ Pk MD<br />If the 1st 1 that u bought want good but a 2nd 1 from the same manufacturer?lilkuntahttp://bing.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7127332643110937777.post-53265167354979402432009-05-20T13:04:36.194-06:002009-05-20T13:04:36.194-06:00Venturer STB7766G Digital Converter Box: Stay away...Venturer STB7766G Digital Converter Box: Stay away. Works fine when it works, but the power supply that comes with it fails easily. Our first one failed after a few weeks of use, and now our escond one (identical unit) Is starting to fail. This is a lemon.Mark Brice- University Park, MDnoreply@blogger.com
