Those are pretty cool but there is no recording that can be done unless you use a PC or one of the tivo things.
I went with the Magnavox Tv/cable recorders about 10 years ago. I have 3 of which no problems have ever been encountered. They do not have program guides so you have to set them up for what you want to record.. I set them up to record programs we like and they record the weekly/daily programs. They run every day.
Now they have a dual tuner which means you can record 2 OTA programs at the same time.. Someday I might get one but they are double the cost of the early models.
This is the current model.. Expensive, yes. But if you cut the cable it will pay for itself in about 1 year, depending on what your cable needs are. Here is Sac we get about 40 digital channels.
