Pros & Cons
PRO'S: It picks up more channels than my TV's tuner. It can pause live TV. It records. The unit can format a flash drive.
CON'S: The bigger the flash drive, the more it hiccups. Pausing and recording works fine with a 32GB flash drive, but has pixilation and lag with a 256GB drive.(Most flash drives over 64GB are formatted with exFAT, but the unit only works with drives formatted with FAT32). One hour of recording uses about 7 gigabytes, so a 32GB drive will only record a little over 4 hours. Also the manual leaves you wondering what some functions do. The display on the front of the unit does NOT show the actual channel, it shows numerical order of the channels. (Let's say you get channels 2, 4, 11, 15, they will appear as 0001, 0002, 0003, 0004).
