I put a dual TV tuner card this one in an old gateway computer. Put it by the TV, HDMI from comp to TV. Old TV antenna to the tuner card. All OTA channels saved to hard drive through windows media center. Your area will have SD channels also, quite a few older shows on those channels.

That's a bit above my paygrade, technologically-speaking. I'm not quite tech savvy enough to pull that off. I'm looking for something more like a Tivo, but without the monthly fee.
Also, what indoor antenna would be recommended? I was thinking of just buying a cheap one and working my way up til I found one that was acceptable, but if someone from Baton Rouge already has one that works, it'd be nice to just buy the best one up front.
