Yes, it's not common knowledge amongst our front line technical support personnel but typically any HD programming that's accessible with an antenna will usually be available on Cox without the use of a converter box. Subscription programming is another matter.
This happened to my sis around the same time in VA. "Conveniently" the day of the digital transition... No one has give us a good answer however. Rescaning has not reestablished the OTA channels]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22669622 Tue, 07 Jul 2009 19:03:36 EDT Re: [CA] clear QAM HD channels for Limited Basic package? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22668240 screenname : How ofter does COX check its PSIP stream? For example, KNBC's HD feed can be found at 84-450 instead of being mapped to 4-1.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22668240 Tue, 07 Jul 2009 14:58:08 EDT Re: [CA] clear QAM HD channels for Limited Basic package? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22665806 CoxTech1 : Yes, it's not common knowledge amongst our front line technical support personnel but typically any HD programming that's accessible with an antenna will usually be available on Cox without the use of a converter box.

The actual channel assignments are not published however.

It is interesting that the post talks about " The law does not require the cable provider to advertise their availability, and the cable customer service representatives are known to unequivocally (and incorrectly) insist to customers that a converter box is mandatory to view any HD channels.". This is the exact respond I got when I called COX.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22664124 Mon, 06 Jul 2009 21:24:20 EDT Re: [CA] clear QAM HD channels for Limited Basic package? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22628880 jesseb_66 : Here in Tucson they changed em every few months... Just re-scan and search for them. I never subscribed to cable TV. Just had HSI, so I imagine you should get them if you actually subscribe to a channel package.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22628880 Mon, 29 Jun 2009 14:35:05 EDT [CA] clear QAM HD channels for Limited Basic package? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22627278 screenname : Until yesterday night, I was able to get local HD channels (2.1, 4.1, 5.1, 7.1....) with my Limited Basic package. Last night, 4.1 and 13.1 are disapper.
