I have it scanning channels right now but I've yet to come with anything. I found my channel line-up here;

»www.silicondust.com/hdhomerun...···de=48098

but I'm a little thrown off with this "hrc" syntax. What is the proper syntax to remap the physical channel with this hrc prefix - example "9-hrc-6" ?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20402450 Mon, 28 Apr 2008 21:25:25 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20275528 Clocker1000 : No you need a high definition cable box to receive the HDPak channels.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20275528 Thu, 03 Apr 2008 10:26:12 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20275041 pargoff : if you have the HDpak, those chans don't come thru the QAM do they?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20275041 Thu, 03 Apr 2008 08:44:56 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20272728 imrf : Basic cable will give you the locals.

Good to hear that I'll be able to receive HD. Do I need to order the HD package, or will regular basic cable receive clear QAM?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20272718 Wed, 02 Apr 2008 20:41:31 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20272679 imrf : The new revision of the 1600 allows for QAM tuning. So if he has a newer card he'll be able to get QAM signals. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20272679 Wed, 02 Apr 2008 20:35:48 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20272385 TweakFreak88 : WOW doesn't broadcast ATSC signals, however, they do broadcast clear-QAM. Right now that is just local HD stations and the music stations. The picture quality is pretty good compared to Comcast's more recent changes.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20272385 Wed, 02 Apr 2008 19:42:14 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20271680 Alphy : I was wondering what the current state of "clear" QAM HD was for WOW; the primary reason why I ask this is because at my current residence, which has Comcast, I'm able to record local HD channels to my computer with my Hauppauge HVR-1600 card. Works great.

I'm moving back to Troy in about a month; what is the cheapest TV package I need to order to receive clear QAM HD from the local stations?

(And yes, I know about OTA HD, however I've grown slightly partial to the stability of QAM HD)]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20271680 Wed, 02 Apr 2008 17:30:29 EDT
