Hi everyone. I'm just entering the world of HD by just buying a HDTV monitor. Now I need to buy my STB and an antenna. I've been reading a lot of the threads concerning these pieces of hardware and I've narrowed my field down to 2 models. The Sony HD200 and the Samsung TS-160. I've read about the 165 (in threads) but I only find the 160 in the stores here- in Richmond, VA.
Here's my question to you: which do you recommend? I'm primarily directing this question to people who have owned and used both models. I've read a lot of negative posts about both models so thats why I'm a little confused as to which model to go with.
I live about 25-30 miles from the towers in Richmond where the locals broadcast their signals if that is a factor in buying a STB. And my plan is to hook up an antenna to receive the OTA locals 1st (now) and hook up a dish next Spring or Summer.
Thanks in adavance
Mark
