Default OTA locals on HR20?

I'm currently using the Hr10 tivo and am thinking about switching to the hr20. I live in Huntsville, AL and HD locals are not available through Directv, but the hr10 seamlessly integrates the ota hd locals.

How does the hr20 integrate OTA locals? Same way, or has anyone experienced any problems? Can you record OTA locals on the harddrive like the hr10?

Thanks,
Jeff

Yes, the HR20 will integrate the OTA locals just like the HR10. It will also record OTA locals.

Hey Jeff, I am just to the north of you, right over the state line. If you don't have an antenna for locals yet, lots of Huntsville folks are having great luck with the Philips/Zenith Silver Sensor and the CM 4228. Mocks Electronics used to sell the CM 4228. PM me if you have any local questions. (PS I have an HR-20 and am very happy with it.)
