Just to follow up on previous posts for those of us in the US who are making the switch to digital tv...
Today I purchased an INSIGNIA NS-DXA1 (using uncle sam's $40 coupon of course!) and I am able to control it with the blaster that came with Hauppage PVR-150 using the LG satellite box code 0162. I got the box at Best Buy. I can even pick subchannels. For example 5-2 use 052. Use leading zero. Also, use the subchannel even if you want x-1. For example, if you want 10-1 then use 101, because if you use just 10, if it tries to tune to 10-1 while you are already on 10-1, it will default to 10-2 (ex. you have two shows to record, one at 9 pm and one at 10 pm both on channel 10-1).
WAF is back up again, was done some after I canceled satellite and went to rabbit ears. Now with DTV box picture is clear again.
I previously posted about a magnavox DTV converter box, but I still have no ability to control it via blaster.
