Insignia NS-RTV32 32" DTV (another piece of crap)

[radiotvnut]

I've been playing with this set and I can tell you that the DTV tuner is nothing special. I am close to the local stations and every channel suffers from the usual DTV reception problems. The only good thing about it is that it lumps the analog and digital channels together in the same lineup. Digital channel 30.2 is followed by analog channel 47 (a low power station). I'd still rather have a good DTV converter connected to one of my older TV's.

If you are close to your area's local TV stations, I would think you would have very good DTV reception, as you probably have more signal than you really need. The only thing I can think of that would cause your DTV reception to be as poor as you say it is with extremely strong signals is that the local OTA signals are overloading the tuner.
