It'd better, or else it's an A-1 ripoff.<br><br>I'm baffled this device needs its own 120V AC plug. Aren't there ATSC tuners that plug directly into a USB plug on a PC? Why can't this be powered from a USB plug on an HR21?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[why not the LS2/LS7?]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 9th 2008 1:20PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on DirecTV intros dual ATSC tuner AM21 to piggyback HR21]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/01/09/directv-intros-two-atsc-tuner-am21-to-piggyback-hr21/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/01/09/directv-intros-two-atsc-tuner-am21-to-piggyback-hr21/</guid><description><![CDATA[But the AM21 comes with it's own AC power port.... so it does a pass-through connection to the HR21... so the pair, only needs one plug on your UPS, Power Strip, Outlet]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Earl Bonovich]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 10th 2008 4:18PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on DirecTV intros dual ATSC tuner AM21 to piggyback HR21]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/01/09/directv-intros-two-atsc-tuner-am21-to-piggyback-hr21/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/01/09/directv-intros-two-atsc-tuner-am21-to-piggyback-hr21/</guid><description><![CDATA[Actually it doesn't - the HR20 has 1 ATSC tuner and 1 satellite tuner<br><br>The HR21 has DUAL satellite tuners, and with the addition of the AM21, TWO ADDITIONAL ATSC tuners - for a total of QUAD TUNING CAPABILITY<br><br>I wonder if the combo will allow for 4 recordings at once?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Brian]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 12th 2008 3:07AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on DirecTV intros dual ATSC tuner AM21 to piggyback HR21]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/01/09/directv-intros-two-atsc-tuner-am21-to-piggyback-hr21/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/01/09/directv-intros-two-atsc-tuner-am21-to-piggyback-hr21/</guid><description><![CDATA[This is good news for me.  I've got a high end HD monitor (Pioneer Elite) with no built in ATSC tuner so I'm limited to viewing whatever comes (or doesn't come) thru my DTV box.  I would gladly purchase one of these for $59.  That's a steal for an outboard tuner box regardless of whether I can get OTA thru my HR20 or not simply because its so cheap.  My next question is, does this come in silver as well as black?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Michael]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 9th 2008 11:32AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on DirecTV intros dual ATSC tuner AM21 to piggyback HR21]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/01/09/directv-intros-two-atsc-tuner-am21-to-piggyback-hr21/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/01/09/directv-intros-two-atsc-tuner-am21-to-piggyback-hr21/</guid><description><![CDATA[It will only be in black....<br>And it is not expected to be functional with the HR20 series]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Earl Bonovich]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 10th 2008 4:19PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on DirecTV intros dual ATSC tuner AM21 to piggyback HR21]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/01/09/directv-intros-two-atsc-tuner-am21-to-piggyback-hr21/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/01/09/directv-intros-two-atsc-tuner-am21-to-piggyback-hr21/</guid><description><![CDATA[So it does not allow you to record 4 things at once.
