    Hi,

    I have a few questions regarding OTA HD and using my HTPC.  I’m hoping someone can provide some info.  I’m a noobie when it comes to ota.

    If I want to get OTA HD, am I correct in assuming I only need something like the DVICO FusionHDTV7 Cool or FusionHDTV5 Gold?  Can I use any of their cards to capture ota HD or do I need to get specific ones?  I’m in Canada so I know I need ATSC. 

    As well I know I need rabbit ears, but is it possible to get a cable that goes from the rabbit ears to the Fusion that is about 15ft?  What kind of cable does one use for that?

    With the capture card can I actually record programs to the hard drive or do I need something else such as a secondary capture card? 

    Lastly, if I want Digital Cable and HD Cable do I need to install two cards and two antennas?

    Thanks!
