OTA Recorder

[mwdxer1]

I have the old Teblo and the new. Both work fine and now there is no charge for the OTA guides. Also Tablo has another 70 streaming channels included that you can record to an HDD. I also have the Amazon Recast, but it is not made any longer. I like the idea on a free OTA guide.

Thought they were dead

Not yet, as long as TiVo's Guide service is good, so will the DVR. BUT, forget a DVR for CATV with Cable Cards, many/most MSO's are not supplying them anymore.

AFA ATSC3; that is as dead as analog TV. It's the "AM Stereo" of the 21st century !

Oh, be STILL, my beating heart!

A pacemaker won't help either.

I was lucky enough to get a 4 tuner OTA TiVO Edge last year when my remanufactured Bolt died under warranty. My wife loves it but the tuner sensitivity is crap. I also have a 4 tuner new Tablo.

Tablo picks up over 100 OTA channels. Tivo about 30 on the same antenna.

The TiVO DVR is still the best but I doubt they will be around much longer since they are not selling a OTA box anymore and cable card's are being discontinued everywhere.

Our DirecTV Stream subscription gets the most use with a Ospry/Gemini box I bought before DirecTV quit selling them.

I am satisfied with the new Tablo. It can be finicky at times requireing restarts but it seems to be improving with the latest software.

Evidently they split the incoming signal 4 ways but did not include enough internal amplification to properly compensate.
