I Use a Bell AND Dish Network ViP722 DVR that have the input on the back for an off-air antenna. I probably use them to record 75% of my shows. You can do everything with OTA through the receiver that you can with any of the satellite channels. The resolution isn't any worse than the dish HD channels--actually I think the OTA channels come in a tiny bit better!
Bell doesn't identify what's on the antenna channels in the guide, like the Dish Network receiver does: It lists what's on 95% of the American OTA channels and I can select a show and create a timer. Otherwise it's called "Digital Service". In which case, you can create a manual timer to record a show.
Love my DVR's! Can't remember the model of my Bell box...think it's a 9200: It's right beside my ViP722 and they look identical.
