Here in VHO-3, the actual #'s were all over the place when I did a re-scan of my DVR (my own DVR with a digital tuner, not Verizon's).]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Starz-free-preview-weekend-of-Nov-11-23333522 Thu, 12 Nov 2009 20:08:21 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Starz-free-preview-weekend-of-Nov-11-23309666 said by TonyXL:

Now if someone could just post the SD and HD QAM numbers for the Starz/Encore channels in Northern VA, my lazy butt would be all set....

Is there an easy way for mean to glean this info from my STB (QIP 7216)?
Here in Reston, NVA, Starz 840 is on QAM 105. The other three, 842, 845, and 847 are on QAM 18]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Starz-free-preview-weekend-of-Nov-11-23309666 Sun, 08 Nov 2009 10:57:06 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Starz-free-preview-weekend-of-Nov-11-23307212 said by TonyXL:

Do you know how to access the diagnostics menu?

With the TV on, tune the channel(s) you want to find out about.
Enter the diagnostics by prssing this sequence of buttons POWER -> SELECT ->SELECT
Go to the D06 screen and it will list the frequency of the channel (even if it is encoded).
Then use the attached spreadsheet to find the QAM number for that frequency. You will have to find the sub-channel by trial and error once the channel is in the clear (keep in mind that Verizon only puts 2 sub-channels per HD).
Good luck!

Easier to implement then sending out the code to each subscriber's box to unlock Starz viewing.
That is correct. Free previews are in the clear :)]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Starz-free-preview-weekend-of-Nov-11-23302498 Fri, 06 Nov 2009 14:18:32 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Starz-free-preview-weekend-of-Nov-11-23301650 said by TonyXL:

Question regarding free previews on FiOS. Are the QAM channels switched to be "in the clear", or are the STB's just instructed to decrypt the channel for all?

Thanks,
Tony
Think I read (in other posting here) that they are in the clear for duration of the promo.
