If the 751 is pulling in all your other stations, I don't know why you would want to change it. What you replace it with depends, in large part, on how much space you have in your attic -- unless...

Then I would further speculate that mounting a 30-2476 three feet above or below the existing antenna will improve reception.

Tivo splits the signal across four tuners. You probably need to amp at the antenna or wherever you distribute to the house -- or both.

I think the PAL is in between the TIVO and the MDR -- closer to TIVO. Unless I am mistaken, the MDR is more like a VCR. No TV Guide, right? For me, the guide is coveted. That I can search it or...

I have build HTPCs and tried some less expensive alternatives. I have found nothing close to this for <$200. You get the nice Dish interface, a big disk, and dual tuners.

The Y5-7-13 arrived. There is no coax connector -- just a couple screw terminals. I guess I need a 300-75ohm transformer. Are these a commodity? Is the cm94444 good?
