Welcome to the DTVUSA Forum. Here is a nice DVD/VCR combo with the ATSC tuner included eCOST.com-JVC DVD Recorder+VCR 1080p Combo with ATSC/NTSC TV Tuner - DRMV100B - JVC DRMV100B (DVD Players & Recorders) - eCOST.com - electronics, computers, laptops, mp3 players. You wouldn't need a CECB to watch OTA DTV TV signals with this DVD/VCR combo. It's a progressive scan DVD player which upconverts your SD DVDs, for a better picture. You can also convert from VCR to DVD media. I believe the only way to record OTA DTV signals with a VCR, is to use a CECB to convert the DTV signal to analog. I'm not 100% sure, but I don't think there is a VCR for recording from the built in ATSC tuner. I haven't been able to find one. A way to record to the old VCR is to connect it to a CECB with a built in 7 day VCR timer. The Dish Network DTVPal Plus is a good one for this. It also includes a very good on screen program guide. I would recommend purchasing a Dish Network DTVPal DVR. DTVPal by DISH Network DVR unit includes an ATSC tuner and will record a HD signal. It includes component outputs for connection to an HDTV. For $249.00 The Dish Network DVR will accomplish everything you're wanting to do.
