Up for grabs: SiliconDust HDHomeRun CableCard

Post by StefanJ »

I "cut the cord" this month!

My MythTV box is now over-the-air only. I'm using the HDHomeRun Flex 4K ATSC 3.0 NextGen TV box, which is working great; I do hope Myth supports ATSC 3 fully someday.

I was using a HD HomeRun PRIME, the one that uses a CableCard (Model # HDHR3-CC).

I'd like to offer this to someone in the MythTV community.

It is back in the original box, with (replacement, new) Ethernet cable, a coax cable, install CD, and quick start guide.

You'll need to ask your cable folks for a CableCard. (Advisory: When I handed in my CableCard, the Comcast rep told me that the company is no longer providing the devices.)

All I ask is the cost of shipping. I think it will fit in a Priority large flat rate box.

I'll wait a day or two, then randomly select amongst those interested if a lot of folks ask.

Thanks,

Stefan Jones

NOTE:

Domestic U.S. shipping only. Even shipping to Canada is astronomical these days. And I cringe at the thought of paperwork and duties.

When I tried to turn my cable card in, they (Frontier) said they didn't want it as they weren't issuing them any more.

That would be the same card I'd been paying $5/mon to rent from them.
