Guys, can I still watch and record OTA if I only have the antenna hooked up to my HR20?
Good question, and I don't have a definate answer,
With the older receivers I would say yes, but the newer ones seam to be a bit more picky.
Sorry, but I am not going to unhook mine to find out.
Ok, I just tried it with my H10, disconnected the sat and the OTA still works, it probably will as long as I have a valid working access card, in other words, if you plan to turn off that receiver and hope for the OTA to work, I doubt if it will work.
I would guess that the HR20-700 would work the same way, but then,if your gonna keep it active, why not use it ?
