Excellent receiver!!
By sailboat
After reviewing many receivers, I decided to go with the LG LST-3510A receiver. I didn't buy it through Amazon, however, I did find some refurbished units on Ebay for half price (~$170). The picture quality is awesome. As mentioned in an earlier review, this unit upscales DVDs to 1080i. The native resolutions of DVD (not HD-DVD or Blueray) are 480p so with this unit, it looks awesome.I live in high rise condo in downtown Chicago and have no problems with reception at all. I even get some channels from Indiana occasionally. Plus another bonus for getting a refurbished unit is that they are region-free programmable. Do a search for vendors that will supply you with the region-free units as you can watch any DVD on the planet with these.

By Glenn R. Howes
I own 3 of these receivers. They are HDTV receivers, not DVD players. I know there is a DVD player bolted into it, but don't rely upon that. If you have the proper firmware and and if you have the proper inputs, and if you have the proper display device, the DVD output can be outstanding, but that is a few too many ifs. I have one hooked up to a Syntax 26" LCD TV over DHCP enabled DVI, and it looks great, but maybe you don't have all your ducks in a row for DVD playback.Over the Air HDTV reception is another story entirely. Filled with flexibility and performance. Things I like:1) Hook it up to an old CRT computer monitor using the RGB (VGA) connector, play around with the zoom level and you get a cheap little TV, which shows standard definition programming especially well.2) Hook it up to a widescreen computer monitor over DVI and get a great picture (may be a little vertically stretched).3) Plug it into a audio receiver via digital TOSLink. Don't have a free fiber optic input? Try digital Coax instead. Only have old school RCA stereo? Go that route instead.4) Far away from the broadcast towers? This box has good sensitivity.5) Want to share the antenna feed with another device? It's got an antenna pass through. I have one cabled to share the antenna with the TiVo upstairs, and one downstairs sharing with a PC capture card. No need for an extra splitter.If you have cable service, the QAM support for local network is good, but cumbersome as two networks might share the same frequency making it difficult to navigate. (For instance NBC might be on 84-1, and ABC might be on 84-2).The remote is a bit large and is missing such basic buttons as fast forward/fast reverse (if you do happen to use the DVD player). And there is no icon for the CW network (WB and UPN icons are still in there).In summary, if you can get one of these for a good price (less than $100 like I did), you end up with a very flexible over the air tuner with the potential for DVD playback and use with a digital cable system.

Better than what you read
By William Morrison
I read the other reviews and thought I'd put something down from someone who is satisfied. The unit works great, LG has great quality, great reception, and a great picture. You save on cables and inputs because the DVD and Tuner are in the same box, which is a brilliant design concept. I never experienced ANY of the problems listed here by the reviewers before me (freeze up, delays, reception, etc), save one:The remote has two buttons that allow chapter skipping forward and reverse accordingly. These same buttons are used for fast forward/reverse and slo-mo stepping by holding the buttins down. LG would have gotten 5 stars instead of 4 had they sprung for two more buttons!
