Mike has a Channel Master DVR and he had to install his own hard drive because the one it comes with is really small. But it was worth it because he doesn't have to pay a monthly fee.

It could be that Mike is using an indoor antenna, which can be easily interferred with. It's going to take a lot of trial and error to tweak the location. Leo advises checking out TVFool.com.
