Overview

Analogue television broadcasting started off on the VHF radio band. It is gradually being replaced by digital and one needs either a DVB-T tuner in-built or a separate STB. Likewise with VCRs.

The Australian market embraced VCR’s at an unbelievable rate. Even Audio Trends got into the swing and even sold blank tapes by the carton. Those days have almost gone, but have been replaced with something a lot better, smaller and easier to use – a DVR commonly referred to as a PVR or Personal Video Recorder.
