Yes -- my father was doing that for a time with a Series 2 TiVo. However, you might want to check out pricing on an upgrade to an HD TiVo. That would obviate the need for a cable box -- the HD TiVo replaces the box (all you'd need from your cable company is a couple of magical CableCards). -- Jim Ellwanger <[email protected]> <http://www.ellwanger.tv> -- TV or Not TV ....
