With well over 700 individual boxes to fill in in the table, it's close to impossible not to have some errors. To those select individuals that claim the information is wrong and especially to spineless one that posted "if your intent is to help people because you are not doing it". You are surely free to explain in detail the correction needed.
Apparently some refuse to look at both sides of the coin and only see the pluses, ignoring the negatives. I look at the whole picture.
The requirements to be listed here are;
1. Available for purchase (new or used) in the US,
2. A stand alone, combined ATSC and/or QAM HD tuner(s) with an internal HDD and or provision for one or,
3. One that has at least one USB and/or eSATA port(s) for an external HDD,
4. Connects to a television directly (HDMI and/or component and/or composite) with no other interface needed,
5. Does not gets it's programming exclusively from the Internet (streaming),
6. Doesn't depend on a PC to record or store the material,
7. HD capable recording (of course).
I didn't include this;
Goldstar (LG) LST-3410A due to age, even though it is still functional. You may be able to find one if you look long enough. The owners thread is here for reference;
