Really want to give up my cable TV......
#12
RE: Really want to give up my cable TV......
There are some DVR devices made for OTA.

The Channel Master unit is hard for me to recommend, the tuner isn't particularly sensitive and the clunky channel scanning feature precludes use of the device with an antenna rotator.

TIVO has (had?) some units that worked OTA. I only ever encountered a couple of them. The second one in particular sticks in my recollection as an unhappy piece of technology. Tuner had issues with signals of differing strengths (unavoidable in my rural area, obviously) and the updating of the unit was painful. People who had it (and paid dearly for it) gave up in a few months and went to DirecTV.

There is another unit, better reviews, and I even have one. Just haven't had time to get it up and running.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
