Re: [COX] Question on DTV changeover for analog VCR recording

said by minnetonka See Profile :

I'm thinking that doesn't apply for us (at least for three years), but have had conflicting information about using my analog VCRs. Some forums say even with cable, I will have to have several converters and splitters (to record one channel and watch another) or at the very least a converter to record.
As long as your local Cable provider has an analog tier you do not have to do anything. Cableco with either convert Digital feed to analog or will get a special analog feed from station.

Once Cableco does away with analog tier then you will need a Set-top-box or QAM compatible receiver to watch unencrypted digital programs.
