Electronic Frontier Foundation HDTV-PVR Cookbook

This opportunity ends July 1, 2005 for US residents!
The EFF HDTV-PVR Cookbook describes how to make your own "Tivo" like device to record television received via antenna.

...recent regulations in the United States will ban the manufacture of DTV-receiving hardware described here after July 1, 2005...despite the manufacturing ban, existing equipment will continue to work (and to be lawful to possess and operate); it will be immune from the restrictions imposed on future equipment. That means that the equipment you can buy today is more functional and more useful than what you may be able to buy after July 1, 2005.
It is important to note that "this equipment does not receive satellite television of any kind, nor does it receive encrypted digital cable."
