I wonder if there is an option to record at lesser quality level (think VCR speeds of SP, LP, SLP). Not sure digital can do that. But at 2 hours, it's pretty much EXACTLY like an old VCR. I wonder if you can remove the flash memory, and insert another (i.e., is it a card? Or soldered into the circuit board).

One day I need to figure out if an indoor OTA antenna will work here. I do miss PBS.

We have a TV that's new enough to pick up digital signals, so we get about 8 PBS stations. Seriously. So much Word Girl and Masterpiece Theatre.

For some reason, my Smart TV, which connects me to almost everything else via built-in WiFi, does not have any sort of built-in antenna.
I used to get basic channels via the existing cable, but now Comcast encrypts everything here. (Coming soon to a state near you, assuming most companies will eventually take advantage of the recent FCC ruling).

Anyone want to help me figure out why the RSS feed on my site is not working? This is the error message: error on line 1 at column 20: Specification mandate value for attribute wp-config.php

megan, I have at least one and maybe two OTA antennae that do me no good because there is just nothing to pick up here (well, there is one independent station that shows random old movies with a LOT of local commercials, but that's it). Let me know if you want to give it/them a try.

-t, I would love to try them out. Much of what I want to watch is on Hulu/Netflix so it didn't seem worth buying one only to find there's interference or something.

I'll let you know when I lay my hands on them (I stashed them somewhere when they didn't get any channels) and we can figure out then how best to get them to you.

I appreciate it! No rush, for sure.
