Re: Digital Transitions

It was great to find out today that as a long time cogeco customer with the basic analog channels that i will be permanently losing all channels above 26.. No box offered. My only option is to upgrade to the digital packs. Anyone have input on this.

Side note - I am not afraid to move forward with technology... I just like the fact that channel 2-29 are the only channels i generally watch anyways.... So it sucks that 2 of the channels I usually watch have again been removed.

theyre not being removed, theyre still being transmitted to you digitally. you need the free DTA to receive them.

Cogeco is very disappointing lately, these adapters boxes are sh*t. Now since a few channels have been changed over , the channels are freezing up and pixelated. Cogeco should just get rid of these adapters and leave channels on Qam or offer the digital boxes at a discount for long time cogeco customers. I'm frustrated cause I paid the $25 to have the adapter professional installed by Cogeco and it still doesn't work properly. Ofcourse I complained but still their charging me the installation fee. I'm serious considering switching to satelitte tv.
