 Perfect little TV September 30, 2008
This was perfect, but unfortunately I just get no reception here. So I returned it and want to commend the seller for being so cooperative with the return. I had no trouble at all and was quickly refunded the purchase price. I would definitely recommend this seller and will go to them for future purchases!
 WILL NOT WORK WITH DTV! September 21, 2008

The Amazon review is correct in stating that a converter box will allow this to operate BUT YOU WILL NEED AC POWER FOR A CONVERTER BOX! Having just come through Ike in Houston and 8 days without power, my portable tv was a lifeline I cannot be without. The gov needs to supply digital portable tvs or some other solution to the disaster prone coasts and other areas. I guess the "cheaper" solution is to buy a $700 generator to power the converter box? SHEEESH.
"What about my portable, battery-powered analog television? Will I be able to use it to watch broadcast television after February 17, 2009?
Portable, battery-powered analog televisions MAY be able to receive over-the-air programming after February 17, 2009 if they are connected to a digital-to-analog converter box. Because battery powered digital-to-analog converter boxes are not currently available, an external power source would also be required. If local utility power service is not available, an external battery power station or an emergency power generator may be able to supply the necessary power for the converter box."

I am very please with my purchase. the reception is prety good and the volume is good even in a loud area.
Nice Device July 28, 2008
This is a great product for camping, outdoors in general, or watching some event at the office. It has a very clear picture.
 Not ready for Prime Time ! July 13, 2008
I purchased this thing, so I could watch the MLB All-Star game from within the Stadium. Let me tell you, the reception is so mediocre , I'm not even going to bother lugging this mini monster to the game with me.
I tested out reception from 3 different places. Inside my home, along the open waterfront area of New York Bay, and within the city amongst the skyscrapers. All were equally poor in quality.
In the days when you convert video to an iPod format (yes I know it's not live TV) that is crystal clear, and awesomely bright, this thing seems as quaint as a spinning wheel. Granted, it might be ok in a hurricane or emergency situation, but if the signal really will drop all together in a year or two, when they switch over to full hi-def, this is no more than a paper weight waiting to happen. Save your money, and wait until something like satellite for portable TV's comes out.
In general the picture works, but requires the long telescoping antenna, and the signal varies, while your watching it.
