Mygica A681B Analog USB TV Tuner Card Antenna, Recast ATSC HD Digital External HDTV Tuner Stick Dongle Adapter for Window, Linux, for PC Computer Laptop Android TV Box, Android Car Navigation

Hooked it into an older computer with windows 10 Using one of those square antennas and it worked. They could do a better job with the instructions to explain the process of recording, how to end the recording, and finding it on your computer.

Product description says is compatible with windows 11. The downloads for the driver and software do not work. Windows 11 will not allow installation due to security issues. So the product is useless on newer computers.

Works but reception is poor due to cheap small antenna

seen reviews that it doesn't work so i though i would try it it work fine, you have to downioad driver and software from vendor website.

This is a great option if you are running a projector with a computer, and what to get local channels over the air, and don’t want to pay for a streaming package that gives you your local channels.It is very easy to setup and use, and with the software your computer becomes a DVR.The unit picked up about 35 channels. I was hoping for a few more channels, but it does get me NBC, CBS, FOX, and ABC which are the most important, so I can get football games.

I bought this so I could watch news coverage on my laptop the next time a hurricane cuts our power off like it did last week. When I tried to download the necessary drivers, a pop up showed that Windows 11blocked the installation. I read on other reviews that when people upgraded from Windows 10 to 11 that it quit working. I thought it might work if loaded on Windows 11 in the first place, but no. Tried to contact customer service through Chat, but message said no one available, leave email and message and I would be contacted. No answer after 24 hours. Returned it today. Great potential, just needs to be made compatible with Windows 11 initially without having to do major work-arounds.

This device is a reminder of why some tech should just be left in the past. While it technically functions, it’s built around outdated standards and comes with more headaches than benefits.First off, it uses ATSC 1.0, which is being phased out across the U.S. as ATSC 3.0 (NextGen TV) rolls out. That means you're investing in something already on life support—futureproof? Not even close.The software it comes with is clunky, unreliable, and often refuses to recognize the tuner. Even when it does, crashes and failed scans are common. Don't expect any sort of plug-and-play simplicity here—you’ll be digging through forums just to get it running.The included antenna is a joke. Unless you live right next to a broadcast tower, you’re probably not getting a decent signal. And even then, the reception is shaky.The USB connection feels cheap and unstable. Slight movement can knock it loose or interrupt your feed. It’s also a power hog, which can overheat your laptop port if used for extended periods.This device isn’t some convenient solution—it’s a relic clinging to barely functional software and hardware. If you’re thinking of using it for serious or regular TV watching, don’t. It’s better suited for a tech experiment or a recycling bin.Bottom line: Severely outdated, poorly supported, and not worth the time or money.

Cheaper than a more expensive product, but works as advertised
