I have been for about a year and it works great. You can also use it with Windows since the output is just mpeg2ts. It does QAM for cable tv signals and VSB-8 for over the air signals. Obviously, it will NOT "tune" analog signals. Analog will be extinct soon and should have been in Feb., thanks congress.<div><br></div><div>You can't go wrong with the HDHomerun.
