This is too narrow a topic but I wasn't sure where it belonged.
I actually don't know what happened, but I had a recording on a TiVo that was made prior to the deadline for rescanning.
We were told to continue to receive My 48 after a certain date in September, we had to rescan because of an upgrade to ATSC 3.0. We could still watch on our traditional equipment after the rescan or get new equipment to see ATSC 3.0.
The next week there was a thunderstorm and when lightning hit, the TiVo quit working (antenna and TV using the same outdated surge protector, which may not have been a surge protector, seemed fine) so I switched to a different one that I had planned to use to test an outdoor antenna with different channels. I had to rescan because the other TiVo had an antenna that couldn't receive anything. So apparently I did all I needed to do, and never had to go through the experience of losing the signal on the old TiVo.
I had another TiVo which was making a lot of noise but after the lightning the noise stopped. Is that a good or a bad thing? The surge protector for that one otherwise seemed to have done its job because everything else plugged into that one seemed fine.
