With cable prices getting out of control, and the fact that I'll be home very little this summer, I'm thinking about putting up an antenna and getting a converter box with DVR capabilities. Anyone have any experience with these, and is there one that you would recommend?

And it's not very intuitive. The remote sucks and I haven't figured out how to add missing channels or delete channels I don't watch. (like the spanish channels and the religious channels.) I can record and rewind when I'm watching a show but I haven't been able to schedule anything and for the most it's not been worth it. There might be something better out there.
