webwat:sbiddle:meremaiden: Thanks for that, I think we have a UHF antenna up-- and according to Tivo site we're highly likely to be able to get a signal. Would UHF be phased out soon though-- is it worth buying a Tivo over 3 years for a technology that might be irrelevant soon-- I'm totally speculating here, know nothing about it...
UHF is not being phased out - I'm not sure where you got that idea from.
Freeview|HD on UHF is the primary method of FTA TV delivery with currently 75% of the population having access to Freeview|HD and that level increaseing to 87% before the analogue channels are shut off.
VHF is being phased out (UHF is still great for digital), so my old analogue TV wont be much good after that.
If you have a twin tuner PVR like MagicTV it won't actually make any difference.
I watch all my TV through the magic box, don't even have the channels tuned in on the TV itself, so the fact the tuner card inside it won't pick up TV after switch over doesn't matter
