[OTA] RCA digital converter box

When I do a channel scan with my RCA DTA 800 digital converter box, it stops at 42% completion with about 19 channels found. I have waited 10 or more minutes without the scan percent changing from 42%. Occasionally, the scan will go to 100 % completion with about 30 channels found. How can I get a complete scan every time?

Re: [OTA] RCA digital converter box

I don't have that particular converter box but it sure sounds like there is some kind of firmware problem.

Seems to be a common problem:

Is there anything on the RCA web site?

Camden, TN		 Those RCA and Magnovox converter boxes people get at wal-mart are amoung the wost rated boxes out there. I guess people want a bacially free box instead of having to pay $20-$25 after the coupon is applied for one that doesn't suck.
