Please don't top post.
so are you using it as digital or analogue?
Are you using schedules direct? You should be. I am not sure zap2it is
still relevant.

Will try posting below the reply. Might look a little odd. At least it
does to me.
Analogue is no longer an option in my area. All stations have gone digital.
I assume I am using digital. Have used this device on my windows machines
and has worked
well so know that it will do what we want. Have a mini digital antenna
attached to the f-series connector.
In my area I should be able to get several different channels. Pretty close
to
Portland Oregon and there are many transmitters going. Suspect the issues
are purely
setup and configurations.
