Yeah, I figured that out.... But I figure I can set it up as a
secondary analog tuner.
I've also found that the PVR150 has a far better analog tuner than the
HD3000 - the PVR150 pulls in about 20 channels OTR and the HD3000 only
about 5. But it does pull in analog PBS, so I can record my kids' shows
as well as the news, which is the whole point of the exercise. :-)
