How did you get around that when you only had one?

I own three HDHR's because I want to avoid viewing conflicts and I have four antennas, each aimed at different station groups. When I only had one HDHR and three antennas, the HDHR 'belonged' to the DVR. One of us was happy to have programing recorded in the few cases there was a schedule conflict that did not appear at the connected receivers. The receivers in the house are connected to the most complete line-up, my south antenna.
If you have two antennas, each aimed at different station groups, and you want to avoid viewing conflicts, you will need two HDHR dual tuners. The signal from each antenna will need to be split to feed each of the tuner inputs (four HDHR inputs plus any other receivers in the house). One HDHR would be 'yours' and the other would be 'hers'. In either case, tuner 0 would handle the antenna 'X' line-up and tuner 1 would be for the antenna 'Y' line-up.
