HDHR Prime without Cable card?

#1

Post by thetoad » Fri Nov 29, 2013 2:24 am

I am a long long time hdhomerun user and can inherit a HDHR Prime from a friend who no longer needs his. I have no plan to get a cable card, but wondering are what its capabilities as a clear qam tuner without the card?

Does it work as a clear qam tuner?
If it does, how many tuners does it provide 1 or more? (i.e. could this be an upgrade to simplify my cabling instead of using a splitter to my old school hdhomerun)

thanks.

The HDHR Prime can be used for ClearQAM and has three tuners.

ok, so either I can go to 4 tuners or simplify my setup (and have a 2 way splitter instead of a 3 way) and have 3 tuners instead of 2 (or get another 2 way splitter and go to 5 tuners)
