Yep...My Node has not yet been converted over to the Full Digital Upgrade and I have slowly lost HD QAM Channels over the last few weeks with the final batch going away over this past weekend....TOTAL BS |

I am not sure if I should rent another box from RCN or go the QAM route with Comcast. Does anyone know if the Comcast basic cable has HDTV locals over QAM ? |

Yes, Comcast has all local HD channels in clear-QAM.
All of them, in full-HD, viewable by any HDTV with a QAM tuner, no box required.
RCN does not. |

I was going to switch to comcast because of this. Even placed the order. The only reason i stayed was because of a few things. i called up rcn. They did not know qam from hsn. She asked what i wanted in order to stay. i told her 20 meg internet that was close to what comcast offered me with their 16 meg plan. (was like $130 for digital cable and 16 meg internet. I think it was for 3 months. or 6). She gave me rcn's 20 meg for $5 more per month. That and all the new channels made me stay. I may not get my hdtv via qam anymore but i can always get a hd copy of the stuff i need on the net with the 20 meg connection. I love it already. Got my first bill and she did give me it for $5 more a month. Did anybody else actually leave because of this? I have a hd capable box but use my computers hd tuner. I cant hookup the box with any type of hd connection. im stuck with either s-video or rf channel 4. The hd channels still look pretty sweet via channel 4. i know, not the same.
