I have a USB antenna that I can record HDTV off the air or unscrambled QAM signaled from the cable box. The recording format is, well depends, 1080i, 720p or 480p in MPEG-2 Transport stream .tp file. I don't know the data rate tho.

In fact, I'd really like to know, so please let us know what you find out! It's possible that they can take mpeg2 files or H.264 files. If so, then you can use Premiere to encode to those formats in HD resolution and then deliver the resulting file (if it's small enough) on a data DVD. Otherwise you can always drop in with a portable hard drive and copy the file at the station. As for Blu-Ray, I know the recorders have fallen quite a bit in price, but I think the real sticking point is the price of the blank discs unless they've dropped a lot in price recently as well. Good luck, and let us know how it turns out.
