Re: [TV] DTA-50: are you complaining about the loss of analog?

So... would your QAM TV give you all 130 channels even if you only pay for the first 29? I don't think QAM filters exist like the analog ones? right?

There are no QAM filters, but for the QAM tuners that are available in TVs today to pick up any channels, those channels have to be broadcast in clear QAM. Rogers currently only broadcasts the music channels on clear QAM, so you can get those channels with a QAM TV even if you don't pay the $2.99 digital services fee to get it.

I DONT want to use the QAM tv, There is no way they can activate stations i subscribe to with the QAM tuner in my tv, but guess what? they have a way of doing this with my STB. so i want to order italian or the mandarin station, i can watch it on my STB hapilly and not complain why i dont pick it up.

Why did you start this thread if you're just going to tell everyone they're wrong? Mods just lock this thread, it's pointless.
