What do you mean by "performance"?  Does the new unit pull in more
difficult channels; lock signals faster; something else?  I'm thinking of
adding another HDHR OTA unit so that I can record from more than 2 OTA
channels at once and am curious to hear if it makes sense to buy a new unit
vs. one of the older models.

TYIA,
