Poor Freeview Box    Post Date: Nov 17, 2005
Reviewer: Alan from Leicester - See all reviews by Alan

Review:

Pros: Quite small



Cons:

1. Locks up a lot, requiring a power off as remote doesn't have an effect

2. Sound gets delayed from video, so virtually any program turns into a low rate kung fu movie. (could be a plus point for some ;-))

3. The receiver has no filtering that i can determine, as the picture dies if my neighbour mowes his lawn with his old petrol mower. Manually adding a filter cures my problems.

4. Price, they are expensive.



My recommendation is to buy one of those cheap boxes for £30, it'll probably work better and cost a lot less.

Panasonic have really shot themselves in the foot    Post Date: Oct 20, 2005
Reviewer: Brian Carson from London UK - See all reviews by Brian Carson

Review:


When you consider that the Panasonic TUCT20 cost £ 40 more than the excellent Humax F2-FOX T { bought at the same time } and the Panasonic TUCT20 does not even have a Timer {nor is it possible to update the software ' Over the air ' it could not be described as a ' Good Buy '



In actual fact some Owner's started a Campaign and Panasonic ' claimed ' it was not possible to include a Timer via a software update { as it transpired they had forgotten to include software that would accept over the air Updates } and then a few Months later - surprise surprise Panasonic brought out the TUCT30 that has a Timer and via over the air updates it now has a seven day epg and this went on sale for Half the price of the TUCT20. At this present time I own Eight STB's { its a long story } but because of clashing RC signals I am forced into buying only one box from any Company.



Out of the eight units the TUCT20 was the most expensive even although No Timer at all - very poor

Compact & Usable    Post Date: Jun 10, 2005
Reviewer: JC from UK - See all reviews by JC

Review:


Had one for a while now. Quite like it - nice size and control is responsive enough (the control is small but I really like it when used to it). Automatic search seems to take an age and only then responds when powered on/off but seems to still work (dont remember always having this problem). Seems to get a bit warm, it does seem to be pushed to its limits a little and will occasionally crash. Overall though recommended
