I'll have a look.  What do I need to receive such DTV OTA?  And do you know
where I can pick it up?  I'd like more than a few channels, but I'll take
what I can get at this point.  

I'm still working out how I can stream my ExpressVu signal from Ottawa to
Toronto to get all the Satellite stations (yes, I'll buy another receiver to
do it).  I figure the remote control will be the hardest part.  The IR from
the remote doesn't go 400km :-)

Thanks.
James.
