Is the coax from the antenna ran through the wall where, if it was next to the receiver, you could plug it into a box without it being seen? In other words, I think the consensus here is that (assuming you don't want to have someone run the cable through the wall for you) you would be better off using an external tuner that can plug into your receiver, instead of using the one in the TV.

The only problem with that is that you've still got to plug the antenna into the external tuner, and if that coax cable is stuck by the TV and not where you can plug into the external tuner without being seen then you basically have the same problem with a different cable.

This should be your answer. Probably around the same cost to install what you were asking vs purchasing the tuner and adding it to your receiver.

I think this one has an optional subscription, if you didnt want to go the TiVo route.


This one might work well for you too, Doc posted something similar:
