I assume OTA means On The Air? Nope, not in my town. Its okay, I am
not thrilled about TV at all. Movies are better. But thanks for the

How much would a digital tuner card cost? I have already invested
over $600 into the new box, and still need more parts... should've
just used my sempron box and beef up the video card with power supply.
