Re: [TWC] Old TV can't get a few channels that a newer TV gets

Be sure a new VCR/DVD player has a tuner built in. I noticed shortly after the anouncment of the digital switch many of these items have omitted the tuner altogether on the low budget versions. I bought a DVD recorder with a digital tuner that works great. I used to get basic cable for free due to RR ISP but the signal just disappeared overnight last year. So I now just use an outdoor antenna. I assumed TWC changed the broadcast format. I tried going thru the VCR but still got nothing. I started looking at broadcast formats and saw there are a lot of them and they seem to change regularly among cable companies. I work with a guy who gets basic cable direct to an old tv wo/a box or VCR but he does live about 20 miles away.
