 Good picture but can't get rid of Spanish channelMar 20, 2009
Good picture, but not for channel surfers
I borrowed one of these from my parents to see if I wanted to get cable in my new house or go free.
Channel changing is a little slow and I couldn't figure out how to skip the Spanish channel. (Nothing against it I just don't speak spanish) That wouldn't be a big deal if it didn't have 4 sub channels (4.1, 4.2...) 50% of my channels didn't have any programming or were in another language and I had to flip through them to get the the ones that worked.
I don't know if one box is better then another for reception but I had to fiddle with the antenna so much between channel changes that I just got cable (the picture quality was just as good or better then cable on my standard def TV)

 Will time out and loses signal oftenFeb 24, 2009
I have been so frustrated with this box, we are exchanging it today for another. If it is on for more than a couple of hours the remote will no longer be able to change channels (it times out) and last night was the final straw when it would randomly shut itself off and on.
Very frustrating.

 Works just fineFeb 16, 2009
Hooked this up last night and it's working just fine. I get more channels than I did with my aerial alone, and much better quality, in fact I was very pleasantly surprised in that regard. I do have a powered interior antenna, although not a particularly new or expensive one. The remote has a 'signal' button that brings up a signal strength display bar on screen so you can see how your antenna placement affects a given channel. Really, with these units it's GIGO - if you aren't feeding it good signal you won't get anything the other end.

 GE 23333 Digital to Analog TV Converter Box Feb 14, 2009
Liked product. Easy to install with good user's manual. Do not use recommend auto scan, auto scan only found six stations, manual process resulted in 28.

no cigarFeb 12, 2009
Looks neat. Easy to set up.I use it with a cute, three panel and dipole antenna GE unit. Good picture and sound. BUT:
On one channel, every ten to fifteen minutes, it locks up- flashes the same frozen picture 2 or 3 times a second, makes a noise of a quick "duh duh duh duh" continually until it is shut off and restarted. It is consistently wierd on that channel.
As I only get two HD signals, taking one out of the mix is a significant reduction in potential viewing.
The backup Apex unit works well.
I may just have a bad unit GE23333, but my experience is a one hundred per cent do not buy recommendation.
Unless you enjoy keeping the remote close to hand for repeated minor remedial surgery. Not my cup of tea.
Regards
