Dear All:

I recently--in the wake of the realization that the cable package my apt. 
building supplies does not get all public broadcasting stations I like to 
watch--decided to drag out and experiment with the converter box I got with my 
gov't rebate some months ago. The results were encouraging while I had it 
hooked up to an old analog TV: I got pretty decent reception with the old 
rabbit-ears antenna I was using, and it seemed most OTA stations came in well 
most of the time. That got me thinking how I could get those stations into my 
myth box (mythbuntu 10.04, P4 2.6, 1.75 GB RAM, PVR150 and BT878 capture 
cards).
