Just like the Magnavox. The only control is a side mounted master power switch. Usually, the el cheapo remotes are the first things to go. I wonder how many of these boxes will end up in the trash because the remote died and there are no controls on the box. Mine came from a friend who lives out in the woods and discovered he couldn't get DTV reception with an indoor antenna. I bought his box for the $15 he had in it. I used it long enough just to see if it worked and put it in the closet. I like my $59 RatShack Digitalstream box much better.
