How I did it
I had TWO single channel analog DVR's very programmable and very "Chatty" that is they shared files I could program a show to record on #1 from #2 or the other way around or on either of them from this laptop.
Current, digital (ATSC) "over the air" (OTA) TV uses the same antennas as the old NTSC, so no changes their.
All you need is a ATSC USB "dongle" a laptop computer (or a Raspberry Pi, very inexpensive) and FREE Kodi software !
I no longer have an RV.
I got the two Analog DVR's back before Digital transistion
used them at home.. Moved them into The RV when we dumped the house.
Worked great.> Post Transistion I had to put a converter in front of 'em.. one fun thing one park I was at one station was all the Batwing could pick up but way better than park cable.. So the Analog DVR's had multiple inputs... Both RF and the 3 cable (Right/Left-Composite) Used the latter from the converter and fed cable straight into the RF port. Worked great. The "Channel number" the software on my scheduler sent to the DVR decided he inpu 0-99 were one input 200-299 another. I could have added a 3rd input if I'd have had one (Composite there too)
