[opendtv] Re: How About Portable ATSC Receivers?

There is one word to describe the need for good OTA reception - football.
I tried watching the Super Bowl in HD via my OTA antenna and my HD Tivo and
had to give up - the constant break ups on Fox DTV in Washington, DC were
just too annoying, so I moved back to satellite SD via DirecTV.

For all of the ATSC smart Alecks on this list, tell me what generation 8VSB
chip is in my HD Tivo with integrated ATSC receiver?
