Not Telling
Crown had a certain taste to it, so I'd like to find something similar. ;-) Not too harsh.
The Crown label said: "Specal blended spirit" "Blended with finest imported malt whiskey".

In Topic: Coax To Rca Converter, Or Old Vcr With Uhf Tuner

Well, it's been almost a year since I posted my question here. Thank you, Saraquin, for trying to help.
I finally found the answer, thanks to a friend who saw it in a local store:
GM2848 DIGITAL TV CONVERTER
http://www.alibaba.c..._CONVERTER.html
You can see a picture of it via the link above.
It takes in the coax output of my RF box (extension from True Visions box), and outputs RCA. The tuner works just like a TV, etc. It does an auto search to find all channels. In my case, if found the UHF frequency for True Visions.
So, now I have separate inputs for cable and True.

Program guide? What program guide?
In the past, UBC/Truevision had a decent set of HTML pages with program listings for the month ahead. I.E., as of today (March 1), you could see all of April. This also used to be true for HBO/CM and Star.
But these days the movie channel web pages have shifted into glitzy nonsense what does away with useful schedule info (at least in a form I can easily use for what's on a few weeks ahead).
And True forces us to use a Flash program that is tricky to use and gives strange results sometimes. Worse, we can't copy the results. I found a program that can convert bitmap to text, but that is a cumbersome step to have to take.
I've complained and begged them to provide another way to get the schedule info on-line. But so far, nothing has changed. They don't seem to understand or agree that there is a problem.
So, I'm wondering if anyone else agrees with me. Have you complained? I think if enough people did, they might do something. I suggested a button that would export search results to a window for copying, a downloadable file, or even an an email. With Flash that's not so easy, I suppose, but there has to be a way.
