 When it comes to high definition DVRs, up until recently choices have been pretty slim. Now that cord cutting is more than a passing fad, manufacturers are starting to take notice and are bringing new devices to market that can help fill this void.

Most of these devices will record free over the air HD TV using a built in tuner. An HD antenna is required to receive these channels. Depending on how far away local television stations are, a small antenna behind a TV is all that may be required. For some areas, a larger attic or roof antenna with an electric rotator may be required. Click here to see which antenna is needed to receive over the air TV reception in your area
