    Channel Master CM-7000 Tv Converter Box

    I Highly recommend the Channel Master CM-7000 Tv Converter Box! I checked out the Consumer Reports ratings, as well as the on-line rating of products, before making my selection. This product rated Top 1 & 2 picks. It is a Great choice!! It arrived Complete with instructions & product information, it is easy to connect, has an easy to follow menu, & the remote control works very well from across the room. I purchased an RCA indoor antenna that had a 50 mile reception range from an electronic dept. of a local retail store & I am Very satisfied with the picture quality & audio reception I am getting on my analog TV. I Highly recommend this product!

    If you don't really need this model to support old hardware - RUN FOR THE HILLS!

    Because *every* one of these units will fail, and it's by no means certain they can always be resurrected. That's what happens when you save money with Chinese capacitors. The gift that keeps giving. So be ready to replace all of them. If you're very lucky, you might not be required to changeout the surface mount components, only the conventional caps. But no guarantees - so the possibility exists that this unit will fail on you over and over again. Your bottom line depends on how much punishment you can take, and how long you're willing to keep your old hardware running. They work well when they work. Google "Wiki" "Capacitor plague"

  • One of the better TV DAC units but limited in abilities

    I've tested several brands of the non-DVR digital to analog converter (DAC) units including, those by Magnavox and RCA. II have it working in conjunction with a VCR to record shows I want to watch later. My experience is using this to get a two local stations and about 4 and sometimes 5 stations up to 90 miles away using an 8-bay bow-tie antenna with a mast mounted signal amplifier. Here are a list of the features I like: * The CM-7000 tends to get channels the other DACs could not, including the one in my new Sony flat-screen TV. * It has the best menu features with show descriptions for upcoming shows. * It allows updates to the channel scan (a supplemental scan) to allow adding channels depending on antenna direction. (This is important for those with rotators on their antennas.) Here are the limitations of the CM-7000: * It cannot control a external device for recording of shows nor can it be programmed to tune to a new channel at a future date/time. For my recording I must pre-tune the DAC to the channel that I want to record. * This is the big problem: These DACs have an issue with the capacitors on the logic board overheating and disabling the tuner. There are people who will sell the kits of the capacitors you need to replace the old ones but doing so is not for someone who does not have experience with soldering on printed circuit boards and good equipment. I've had two of these CM-7000 need the capacitors replaced but only one was I able to fix. * The newer Channel Master DVR+ is comparable but because it has two independent tuners, with the signal strength to each about 3dB less than the combined input, it cannot get the weaker stations. Its menu structure is not as nice as the CM-7000.

  • Cm7000

    Older S video unit (no hdmi). Stronger than most antenna receiver, great picture even with rca jacks. Lasts longer than most as well. Great and useful design. Only bad point is you have to turn to the channel to view the guide for that channel.

  • Excellent unit

    Excellent picture quality, and very versatile unit, I would have given it 5 stars except for the fact that the unit uses some very cheap capacitors. My first unit lasted 15 years,( just good luck I guess ), we'll see how long this one lasts

  • Great ATSC TV receiver with some glitches

    I changed all the through hole capacitors, even though only 3 are actually bad enough causing it to stay on red light past the 18 second boot up time. It's easy to use. It shows the current time at the top bar when changing channels. The audio isn't delayed with the video when changing channels. It's reported to have the best image quality, and I can't disagree. It's the only unit of its time that I know of that has an S-Video output. That really clears up the image especially if you have a good TV to go with it. Some cheap TVs don't give S-Video its full potential. You can read the fine print in the drug and loan advertisements with it. When scanning it adds very weak channels to the channel list, allowing you to adjust the antenna later to be able to receive them. That is a big plus. It allows adding scanning and adding new channels to the current list. The reception seems to be above average, but the thing is my SDTV picks up some channels that the CM-7000 doesn't and the other way around. Maybe one has more sensitivity and the other a better tuner? The glitches are that there must be some interference in my area, because the channel scan kept exiting part way through. It eventually made it through. Maybe my unit has an issue, but when watching a weak signal channel it'll sometimes go to no signal on all channels and I have to cycle it from standby to on to make it start working again.

  • Channel Master CM-7000 CM7000 D2A Digital to Analog TV Tuner Converter Box

    This Channel Master CM-7000 CM7000 D2A Digital to Analog TV Tuner Converter Box it is better than what I use before. In some areas you are able to see more channels with this box. It depends on the area and the availability of channels where you live. It is important to mention that you need a long range antenna as well. I used with my TV for about 6 months and I like so far more channels for free. Also from time to time you need to scan for more channels to see if anything new is available. In order this box to work better get a good antenna and position the antenna in a right direction to be able to pick up more channels. If you don't want to pay for cable this is a good converter box to have, because it will work with most TV's old style and new style. However, this silver or white version it works better than the CM-7001 black version that has HDMI on it. This one has SVIDEO on it, but not HDMI on it. Don't buy Made in China Converter Box.

  • Good device, simple but does the job

    this is generally regarded at the best tuner for over the air TV signal. I have used this model for about 9 years with good success.
