I think it's time to ditch this TiVo. If I can't get the aerial only installation working tonight, it's going in the skip.
NOOOO!!!!!!
If you are really serious about throwing it away then I will gladly pay the postage for you to send it to me
Having had SEVERE Sky+ hassles for the last 2 days I really want a second Tivo.
My SKY+ box died on Monday with the power light just blinking so I replaced it with a "spare" that I recently bought. All was OK apart from no premium channels so rang SKY to get card paired to new box.
Shortly afterwards I went to delete one of my test recordings and the hard drive died
Because of the dead drive the box refused to come out of standby.
Tried fitting a spare 120G drive that I had and it refused to see it until after I put it into a PC and did a low level format.
In the meantime Tivo continued to operate faultlessly apart from all my disk space was beign eaten by other family members
All is now back to normal but it makes you realise how much you rely on PVR technology !!!!
