Thank you for the input. I have a lot to digest here.
At the risk of sounding like a 'glass-half-empty' kind of guy:
The HomeRun looks like a great toy, but it doesn't address the issue that it would seem that you are implying it would, that being the fact that I cannot get the two channels that carry my favourite show*. If I cannot receive those channels, sharing them over the home network is not an option.
Same with the SlingBox. Another great toy, but I am not concerned with watching TV while I am away, I am concerned with watching it while I am home. And once again, if I cannot receive the channels, the point becomes moot.
*Incidentally, said show is carried on CBLT and WKBW, but neither one carries it in HD, both cut portions of it out, and the latter even goes so far as to crop it to 4:3.
All of that being said, maybe I will settle for getting all of the Buffalo stations reliably. The three that are not currently reliable are:
7 WBBZ
23 WPXJ
49 WNYO
I can easily get the flaky Toronto stations by adding a 4-bay in that direction (or probably even a 2-bay). Also, three of the four (Toronto stations) that tend to drop out are going to be moved up to the CN Tower (from their current place atop the BMO tower), so that might not be an issue at all. The fourth station, Sun, seems to be a lot more stable than it was even a couple of days ago, so we'll see.
Once again thanks for all of the input.
Brian
