OK Guys first off, I have a BUD and am currently getting HD Showtime (East and West) and HD HBO (East and West) and do not plan to switch do the inferior choices for HD Movie channels on Direct TV. The movie channels are cheaper on BUD and I get east and west feeds as well as many more versions of the non HD feeds as well.
So I have a Mit 73907 and would like the use the HD STB for OTA Tuning mainly and to get the HDNet Sports channel. I would also like to get NHL Center Ice. This means Dish is not an Option as they don't carry Center Ica or HDnet Sports.
Now I know about the old warhorse RCA DTC 100 but it has a VGA out and for many reasons I would prefer a unit with component HD out.
This Leave me looking at...
Hughes (Which also makes Toshiba and Mits HD STBs)
Are there any differences between the 3?
Sony
I have heard of some problems with a slow menu, but that their OTA Tuners are good.
Panasonic
I know little about this model and have not seen it in any stores yet.
And what other models should I be considering?
What is the Min programing package cost that would allow me to sign up for locals and Center Ice as well as HDNet.
I live in a house with lots of trees and am unsure how to check for line of sight on the two sats I need to hit. Is there anyone that can explain how to know find out if I even can "see" these birds? I am in West Central Fla, Tampa Area.
Any Help would be great. Thanks to all in advance.
