Oct 3rd 2008 4:41AM What the hell is a "position"??? Do they mean "channel"? "Position 764" sounds extremely awkward.

Poll: How many HD channels do you have? {Engadget HD}
Mar 1st 2008 8:40PM Yes, you definitely need to connect an antenna to get HD channels over the air. Start out with a simple set of rabbit ears. If that's not satisfactory, you may need to go with a big attic or roof antenna. Whichever antenna you choose, point it in all sorts of different directions, and then re-scan for channels and see what you get.

Feb 24th 2008 4:33AM My local Fox affiliate does the CW on its DT-2 and My Network TV on its DT-3 and the Fox HD picture still looks fine. And, I'd love to have NBC Weather Plus or the AccuWeather Channel in this market.

Jan 28th 2008 3:18AM If they billed in "meter" form (ie. how much you watch) there'd be an outcry from organizations that represent the elderly and disabled. For many of them, having the TV on all day and night is the only thing that keeps them sane.

OTA antenna sales skyrocket, cable subscribers jump ship {Engadget HD}
Dec 5th 2007 10:21PM mcss1985: YES, the current Dish Network receivers being installed have an antenna input, the HD locals that you get over the antenna will be displayed in the guide, and you can set your DVR to record the locals. How much guide data you get varies by market. For instance, in my market, the local Ion Television affiliate and its subchannels are listed in the guide, but with no program info (it just says "Digital Service"). You can still DVR those channels... You'll just have to set a manual timer, which is easy enough. When you order service, you might want to confirm with Dish that they're giving you a receiver with an over-the-air antenna input.
