Does it require a set to box to receive channels?

It should not if it is a digital TV. That is what I used it on and it works just fine. If it is an old analog I think you will need a box.

No. It connects directly to your TV so it can get high def and digital signals. Since it's amplified it will get more channels. It's very good in Miami area. I get around 20-30 channels and most in HD

If you mean without some sort of digital box from your cable provider, yes. That's how I'm using it and I'm getting a few of the HD channels without benefit of a box. I don't know if this amplifier works with satellite, but I would doubt it.

I did not need the conversion box. I just screwed it into my digital flat TV and it worked fine. Just scan for channels. I get about 20 local channels here in mid town Memphis, Tn. I have to move it a little sometimes because of air planes. Im close to FedEx and the airport.

No this will not take the place of the digital box. Only bring in channels clear that it can pick up, mostly local channel.

If you are referring to a cable or satellite box, then yes (if you want to receive a digital signal). If not, then no (your antenna should suffice). However, you can download streaming apps directly to the TV if you have either a wired or wireless internet connection.

If you put it in the window it will pick up channels. I never thought of putting a box on it because I have a new RCA. Not suppose to have to put it on converter box if I have a new HD TV.

Yes it does. You will have to watch for interference, I've found I often have to find a different channel than the default channel because it is VERY prone to being triggered by random transmissions at certain sites.

I believe you would need a box because there would be no way to change channels through the device itself. Really this is best suited for use with a computer or smart phone. We use both android and iOS phones with ours and watch Netflix, Hulu and other internet based media. We are also able to watch direct tv (live tv) through their app on our phns through the projector. It's a great device with decent sound... I Just don't think it's going to do exactly what you are wanting it too without buying more equipment. Hope that helps.

Apparently not. I have been looking myself for the same function with no luck. The only thing that gets close to that is to use the favorite channel option

Yes. It is pretty easy to set up tho you may have to contact Direct TV to get the receiver activated

This unit receive Over the Air channels. You will need to connect a digital antenna to this unit, then connect this unit to your TV.

I never got an answer, but I was never successful getting the feature to work with my new receiver so I'm *pretty* sure that the TV doesn't have one. It hasn't bothered me since I barely need the feature [I watch youtube, etc. with my new wireless Samsung Blu-Ray and no longer from the TV's wi-fi], but I'll probably pick up a TOS optical cable to run from the TV to the receiver eventually.

Here's a website I made with diagram and guide on using a converter box to listen to Digital TV. YOu don't need a radio or TV set. The converter box is your "radio"http://www.lustronconnection.org/digitaltvonradio/

I believe it does need a digital box.Try it without a digital box first just to see how the signal is coming in.I have a digital box and the signal was weak.This may not be the same for everyone.

no, you would have to have a media extender attached to the network to be able to stream media from box to TV.

Yes. But be aware-the box only works if you have a cable card installed. it will not work with a direct cable or antenna, only.

No, Antenna only. iView has other products that may suit your need. I wasn't overly pleased with this box. I would also suggest checking out Channel Master @ channelmaster.com. Not sure if you're just looking for a box to replace your rented HD receiver box from your cable company. Either way, these units aren't cheap, yet. Good luck, hope this helped.
