My husband and I are liberating ourselves from Time Warner cable by going OTA. Our TV is old (i.e. not digital) but not so old that we want to run out and buy another TV set, what with the cost of the new antenna and all. So we need a converter box. We also want to replace TW's DVR with one of our own.

Does anyone make a DVR which also handles the digital conversion for the OTA signal to our TV? I've looked around but haven't found one. I suspect it might make more sense to just get two separate components, but I thought I'd ask here first.

Thanks!

Go to http://www.channelmasterstore.com/ channelmaster has a new Broadcast Television Digital ATSC Tuner/DVR the CM7000PAL DVR (CM7000PAL) has a built in hard drive. The outputs of the CM7000PAL will work with any Tv. If you will like to record on to DVD's then check out the Panasonic VIERA DMR-EZ48VK it has a Broadcast Television Digital ATSC Tuner , records on to DVD's and has outputs that will work with any Tv. And if you will like to up grade , the DMR-EZ48VK is made to work seamlessly with some VIERA Panasonic Tv's using one remote to control every thing. http://www.panasonic.com/
