I've been running a Tivo OTA since 2017. Haven't paid for local channels since then. Paid once for the box and a good outdoor antenna. Now I only have Disney/Hulu bundle for free with my cell phone data package.
I've been OTA for 11 years. My last TiVo croaked on me last September.
I cannot get a new one. They're not available... Anywhere! I even tried to bid on one on E-bay.
WTF!
Just grab an old PC, slap a TV tuner in it and record away. Dirt cheap.
We just sold a Tivo Premiere (ATSC 1.0 OTA Tivo) last month on ebay, so they are out there.
Ha, yeah... I'm not paying $300+ for a unit in unknown condition.
