Really works.......2007-12-15

These Clearplay DVD players really do work. You can configure the settings you want and it automatically skips certain scenes and mutes certain words when the ClearPlay feature is turned on. It's done carefully so it's as smooth as can be expected. As long as I keep it up to date it supports almost all the movies I've tried (I've mostly tried recent PG and PG-13 movies). It makes watching movies together as a family a lot more fun instead of always worrying about "that one part." Of course some movies just aren't appropriate for kids with or without filtering, but the majority of movies are mostly good but with just a couple problem areas seemingly inserted just to ensure it wouldn't get the dreaded 'G' rating and be automatically considered a kids movie, even when that's not really the case.
I originally had the older MaxPlay model and replaced it with this one which is a big improvement since you can update it using the standard USB flash drive they provide (the MaxPlay had to use a phone line to dial up and retrieve updates).
I've contacted support on a couple of occassions and got a quick and helpful email response, so no complaints there.
I haven't had any problems with audio or video as long as the unit is plugged in properly and configured correctly. I use the digitial audio and component video outputs so I'm not sure about the analog audio out, but I'd be really surprised if there was a widespread audio problem as another review seemed to indicate. A hum can be caused by almost anything, from RF interference to a grounding problem in the house wiring, or a just plain cheap junky TV in combination with certain types of equipment.
I have had to "reboot" the unit once or twice by unplugging it for 30 seconds and then plugging back in, but for the most part it works great, and it's by far the best option for viewing your existing DVD collection without the scenes and language you'd rather not watch/listen to.

Bad audio........2007-11-27

I purchased one of these from a local seller, and brought it home, hoping to fire it up and enjoy some movies with the kids.

No such luck. There was a horrible problem with the RCA audio out (may be fixed on one of the other digital audio out ports): it has a loud whine which starts as soon as the player powers up and continues even while movies are playing. It also makes noises on the audio out channel when the discs are loading up. I took it back and exchanged it and the second unit had the same problem.

I use my current dvd player to listen to CDs on my stereo, and that was impossible to do with this DVD player, since there was too much noise coming from it to hear the CDs the way I'd like.

Other things that were slightly poorly designed: unfinished screws sticking out the bottom of the unit (though there are a few rubber feet which raise the screws above the surface the DVD player is resting on, you'd still best not reach your hand under it blindly for fear of getting scraped); flaky power toggle switch that felt like it might break if pressed a few too many times; a not-too-responsive remote (sometimes you have to push a button three times before it's recognized by the DVD player, other times the same button works on the first try)...

There's obviously a lot going on in the software realm in this player, so it's entirely possible that many of these problems (saving the physical hardware problems) might be fixed with a future firmware release. If they do get fixed, I'd be the first to line up to re-purchase one of these: I think the idea behind the technology is awesome, but the implementation leaves something to be desired.

Basic CB that gets GREAT reception and has clear sound.......2007-10-13

I want to change my antenna because I can only get out about 3 miles clearly, but the radio is the part of the setup that I will be KEEPING. The front facing speaker is very clear, RF gain works very well as does squelching with a 2-second delay which is very nice. Weather band is nice to have as well. No bells and whistles, but doesn't leave you wanting either.

Great radio for the price.......2007-10-11

For the price range that this radio is in you'll have a hard time finding one that is better. The reason that I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars is that it does not have some of the nice features of the more expensive radios, but it doesn't have their price tag either. The quality of sound from the speaker on this radio is suprisingly good with plenty of volume. The mic seems tough enough that it should last through a lot of years of use. This is a great little unit for what it costs and I would recommend it to anyone.

finally got a brand that works.......2007-10-10

this has been such a welcome addition since I went through all the problems with a different brand and still have not got the issue resolved with the factory I can't list it cause they won't publish my review but I really am happy with this one I just got one of the other 2 that I was having a problem with they are not a UNIDEN the other brand is Venomous and they are still messed up after about 6 weeks at the factory service center

Good CB.......2007-05-08

This CB has the NOAA weather bands on it and almost anywhere in the country, you will be able to pick up the local weather on one of the three channels. The squelch and RF gain dial allow you to tune out weak or staticy signals that interfere with what you do want to listen to or talk with.

A good value, all in all, and (I am told) they are made with the same circuitry that Cobras are made with for much less money.

Works great, User friendly........2006-06-30

The Uniden PRO538W works great! As long as you have a good quality antenna set up, and take the time to tune everything with an SWR meter this CB is amazing. I use it for off-roading, so the range wasn't a big concern to me, but rest assured, when properly set up, this thing can get some killer range on the highway. The ability to access weather channels is a nice feature too, I use it more than I thought I would. Having the PA function is a good novelty, when hooked to a speaker you can have a lot of fun talking to people on the street as you pass by. Great way to pick-up chicks. So overall, a great product, as long as you set it up and tune it properly. When matched with a good antenna, this CB won't be beat.
