Is there any way to watch one channel of live TV while recording another?

TiVo FAQ
Yes. Split your cable coming out of the wall & run it directly into a second input on the back of your TV. That way, you can still watch a live feed (although you lose the ability to pause/rewind, which sucks). Also, in my case, since I have digital cable, I can't get my digital channels through this feed.

I have a Supernet Digital Terrestrial Receiver. Unfortunately the remote was lost whilst moving house and I was wondering if you could tell me where I’d be able to buy a replacement remote at a relatively cheap price. I tried retravision but they wanted $60 odd. A friend seems to think that I’d be able to pick one up for around $20-$30 from Big W but I’m a little concerned whether it would actually work? Any advice you can throw my way would be greatly appreciated.
